I considered Randy a good friend and I was a recipient of his many of his story’s. Randy used to attend the White River Church in West Fork, and he was very much involved within the community. I remember the excitement when Randy won the lottery and he was able to buy himself a new vehicle. I was excited for him because it really helped him at the time. “Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart.” Randy was that type of person when he crossed paths with me in this life. Randy always stood for his Faith, Family, and Country and that’s something to be proud of. Please, accept my condolences in this time of sorrow. May the light of the Lord shine through in your family and bring you abundant peace.
