Add My Condolences

Randy was a great man. I loved his passion for the Minnesota Vikings, but even more importantly, I admired his love for his family! It was a pleasure to know you Randy, or as you hated when I called you it, Sir! Rest in peace my friend, no more pain. Please tell Leslye I said hello as you have now joined her for eternity! God bless you both, you will be missed.

Heaven’s gain is definitely our loss. Randy was incredibly kind, generous and supportive. I valued the time I spent with him at NSHS and catching up at our reunions. May the knowledge that he has gone onto his heavenly home bring you peace and comfort. He will be missed ??

So very sorry. Randy and I were lunch buddies at North Schuylkill HS. We had many a great time sharing stories and just being teenagers. He will be sorely missed. May his light be eternal.
