R.I.P. Randy
Randy was older than I was but we knew each other because we lived near each other in Fulton.
Worked with Randy at the CNW car shop.Hell of a good man. RIP Randy.
Randy was an amazing human being that so was a lover of nature, art. and the beauty of the world. He was so kind and appreciative of those that he knew and understood him. He will not be forgotten. He was that one of a kind, open minded, and caring guy. Heartfelt prayers to all that loved him. May God give you love and the peace you deserve for having Randy so close to you in you life.
If Randy called you a friend then you had someone who would give his shirt for you and walk with you through any fire you found yourself in! I’m better for having known him. I don’t know how it works brother but I sure hope to see you again down the road!!
