I truly loved Randy for we were close coworkers. I would call him my husband and joke with him at work. He was a kind person with a sweet soul and I will forever keep his memory in my heart. God Bless his entire family. Easter Sunday - The speial day God chose to have Randy join him in eternal life. I miss him dearly.

To my precious Family- Hold on and remember that "God", shall wipe away all tears from our eyes and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain, for the former things are passed and WE ALL SHALL MEET and GREET in that GREAT PLACE, GOD IS PREPARING FOR THAT GREAT REUNION. This is not goodbye to Randy, but just a "Short Journey" before we will all come back to together as one and What a reunion this will be! So Be NOT heartbroken, dismayed, nor despaired, remember that Randy' loved us all. His warm nature was one of loving, jokingly, happy, strong life force spirit; even when he pretended to be gruff yet steadily giving to everyone, cooking for this person or next for one or many. Doing for his family and others. I know Randy wouldn’t want his family Saddened, over his HOME GOING, but DELIGHTED that he's at home with FAMILY that was awaiting him with OPEN ARMS, as he too will be for us! And of course WITH "RANDY'S" OWN GREETING and HIS VERY OWN --SPECIAL VERBIAGE! MY HEART and SOUL along with PRAYS OF COMFORT ARE FOREVER, WITH YOU ALL, Loving & Sincerely, Almost the Doc, Patty Broils Dean.

He was kind and caring man who always had a kind word. Keep the memories that you have of him close in your heart and know that Jehovah God will see you through this most difficult time.

To the Watson Family,
In all things God works for the good of those who loved him and for those who have been called according to his purpose. We may not always understand or know why god calls us when he does, but as long as we declare with our mouth and believe in our hearts we will be saved! Randy will be missed at Toledo Head Start! He always assisted me or helped me whenever I asked. He was one of the good guys you could count on, rest in peace Randy!

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the family of Randy. I've worked with Randy for 10 years here at EOPA/Toledo Head Start. Randy was a very kind and giving person and was always willing to help when ever he could. I will truly miss him coming to my office door, standing there and screaming "Dolly" while I just sat there and looked at him and laughed . I'm truly blessed to have known him.
I pray that God gives the family the strength that is needed to get through this very diffifult time. May God bless each and every one of you.

To Randall's family:
I had the opportunity to know "brother" Randall from Head Start. I found him to be a man that cherished the Lord. Whenever I was approached by him, he always had an encouraging word for me as well as speaking kindly about others. Without a doubt, I will miss his present greatly but will cherish the fact that he is now absence from the body and present with the Lord.
