Wow ! I can't believe it has been a year already ! Every morning when I put my puppies in their pen for the day I look up towards heaven and the brightest star shinning in the South-Easterm sky and say , " Hellooooow Randy ! Just something we did everytime we greeted one another .

Randy was my next door neighbor growing up, he was like family to me, sort of like my younger brother, had a lot of good memories fishing together, shooting and groundhog hunting together, going up to camp. His passing was a shock to me and I couldn't believe it! I will miss him greatly. He was more like a brother than a friend! RIP my brother!

I met Randy in highschool , almost 40 years ago. He was my friend , we were brothers inside and outside of the Carpenters Union . The thing about Randy is he had a very short bucket list of things he wanted to do . He always said that " I ain't watin until I'm old to do this ". And if you work in the building trades you know what he ment . Do I miss my friend ? Very much so . Do I cry for him ? NO ! In my opinion , Randy Shrader lived his life to the fullest each and every day he woke up and put his feet on the floor . He was a true friend to me . He did right by his family , his parents were the most important people in his life and I want to thank them for creating such a wonderful human being . Until we meet again my brother .

I worked with Randy a few times over the years and a bunch of us would hang out at the meetings. My deepest sympathies to all of his family. Randy was an awesome guy and I loved listening to his stories. I am so sorry for your loss..

Knew Randy as a pizza shop customer since I was 18. I’m almost 48 now & just saw him last Sunday evening getting his pizza. He was always super nice & friendly. He knew my voice on the phone & I knew his. We had many discussions over the years & I was shocked
& upset to hear of his passing. It will be strange never talking to or seeing him again. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him. RIP Randy.
