The loss you all feel is great. I too will miss his quick wit and ability to make any situation fun and memorable. The world was a a better place and definitely more fun with you in it. Every time I hear Smokey Robinson I will fondly remember you .

My dearest Uncle Randy: Words cannot express my heartbreak. I am devastated. You were precious to me, and I know I was precious to you. We had an unspoken bond that will never be broken. I know you have been visiting me lately, turning on my flameless candles, making my lamps blink and flicker when they never have before, turning on my exhaust fan thats been broken and never worked, and making shower caddys fall on their own! I hear you, and know you are just saying hi. But your spirit is also unsettled and you havent crossed over. So I want you to be at peace now my dear. Go be with Grandma, Grandpa, Dickie, and Jeff. I love you forever Uncle Ree. Love, Kimie

I have much sadness, to hear of Randy's death over this past weekend. I have known him since grade school, but have not connected in recent years. He was always a fun guy to be around, I wish we could have spent time together in recent years but that wasn't to be. Good Bye old friend, God bless you.
