AS A TEEN RANDY GAVE HIS LIFE TO CHRIST; HE THOROUGHLY ENJOYED MINISTERING TO AND PREACHING THE WORD OF GOD IN HIS TWENTIES AND AS HIS FAMILY GREW AND LIFE BECAME COMPLICATED HE WANDERED, BUT ALWAYS KNEW WHO HIS SAVIOR WAS. SIX YEARS AGO HE REDEDICATED HIS LIFE TO THE LORD AND WAS A DEVOTED MEMBER OF ETHRIDGE CHURCH OF CHRIST. HIS LOVE FOR HIS WIFE, VICTORIA, WAS PROFOUND, AND HE BELIEVED THAT GOD BROUGHT THEM TOGETHER; HE THANKED GOD EVERY DAY FOR THE LIFE THEY WERE BLESSED TO LIVE. FAMILY BECAME THE HEART OF RANDY’S LIFE, AND HE CHERISHED EVERY MOMENT SPENT WITH HIS GRANDCHILDREN, NIECE AND NEPHEWS.
RANDY WAS BLESSED TO BE ABLE TO COME BACK TO THE FAMILY FARM HE WAS RAISED ON TO SPEND HIS LAST YEARS, A PLACE THAT BROUGHT HIM IMMENSE JOY AND PEACE. HE WAS A GIFTED SINGER AND BASS FISHERMAN, A LOVE THAT HE PASSED ONTO HIS SON AND GRANDCHILDREN. HE WILL BE GREATLY MISSED, BUT THOSE WHO KNEW HIM BEST WILL FIND SOLACE THAT HE IS NO LONGER IN PAIN AND THAT HE IS ALREADY CHECKING OUT THE PONDS AND RIVERS IN PARADISE, AND WE WILL SEE HIM AGAIN!
