    i hate I didn't get to know Randy as a fellow Taurus, but I could tell that he was a wonderful husband, father, grandfather and Christian. He shined with God's love and grace and peace. God gifted him with getting to be at Kathleen and Richard's wedding, getting to walk her down the aisle, and coming back to his loved home before he was needed in Heaven. Cherry, family and friends, treasure your memories and look forward to seeing Randy again.

    Cherry and family,
    Phil and I were saddened to hear Randy passed away. He thought the world of Jessica. I have never forgotten that he got the shrimp for Jessica and Jake's wedding. My family went on about those shrimp for years! We're thinking of you all. Love, Phil & Becky McRoy
