Duck, words can't express how much I truly miss you. I never thought the last time that I will be able to see was at Toya birthday party. You were the life of the party and I'm truly missing you. I appreciate the good time I was able to share with you, never a dull moment. Just know, that you lived an abundant life and accomplished all that you set forth and had planned. You are my inspiration to keep reaching my goal. I love you "Duck", get your rest family. Stay strong Brown, Rhodes, and Hutto family, God has his healing hands on your hearts.

It's difficult to understand how a natural leader like "Duck" is gone. He was the first person I met at the boys and girls club. He was one of the most sincere people I have ever met. He will truly be missed. Praying for everyone he has touched with his smile.

To the Brown and Rhodes family, my heart aches as I send this message, but please know that God is your source and strength. Randall was such a great leader and a dynamic helper at the Westside Boys and Girls Club. He would come into the club, and change the entire atmosphere with his kindness and brilliant energy. He always made sure I had things in order, and assured me he would help out in any way possible. Randall, "Duck", you will be missed. Thank you for touching my life and making a difference in other's lives.

My nephew's eyes have gone forever, his smile, his laugh, his face; where he once stood with us -a picture will take his place...gone too soon, such a fine young man, always ready to lean a hand, departed from your place of birth, I can hardly believe you will no longer walk this earth - REALITY is I know it's true but in my heart is a living space for you, I know you will protect it & treat it well, you have cared for everything & everyone so I can tell. Duck has separated from earth but he is present with the LORD. May that joy continue to live within & carry all of us! "WE LOVE YOU DUCK - B STRONG FAMILY"

To the Family of Randall Brown, please accept my deepest condolences and sincere prayers during this very difficult time. Sharing several classes with Randy at Benedict College and later reuniting with him at the BC Child Development Center as Id visit annually as a Musical Guest, afforded me the valued opportunity to witness his amazing gift with children. In short, his students("babies") loved the ground he walk upon, and by no surprise to any,,Randall was and yet is a phenomenal young man whom im honored to have crossed paths. Please know my friends and family here in Kansas and abroad shall keep you lifted! Grace and GODs Peace..

Trying to make sense of this is beyond what I can do on my own. "Duck" was the FIRST person I met (in the dreadful bookstore line) at Benedict College. He spoke primarily of his grandmother and how her words, actions, and beliefs resignated deeply within him. We remained good friends and managed to graduate together...To my understanding she has since gone to be with the Lord and now he has joined his precious "jewel" ...
"Duck" was kind, cool, and very much collected...I've cried as much as I can stand and I truly believe God's got this all under control.
Rest in Peace my friend...

I believe we are all here for a purpose, what that purpose is, we will never know. I also believe everything happens for a reason, something's we may not understand at the time, and questions may surface but who are we to question God? It saddens me that we have to end our friendship here on earth, but I know that without a doubt we will meet again on a better turf ground singing, dancing and chanting like old times... Your spirit will forever be within me and your words of wisdom will forever be bestowed in my soul. There will never be a day that passes by and the three words PULLING, pushing & PASSING aren't ringing in my head, and that is something I will cherish forever. I love you Mr. Brown may you rest peacefully and I will see you again ...
