I remember how sad Randy was when Brandon was taken from him. I could see how happy he was having you for his wife and a wonderful child like Zane. I hope you can find comfort in the fact that you made him so happy and stood by him through all the problems with seeing Brandon. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Although we only knew Randy for a short while, we would like to express our sincerest condolences to his family. We first met Randy through James. The two of them cleared some land for my parents and then they cleared a lot my wife and I bought, several months later. I work with James at Hertz and visit jobsites. Everytime he saw me pull up to a job he was on, he would stop what he was doing or motion for me to go to where he was and ask how things were going. We feel very fortunate to have known Randy, and he really was a genuine good person. I hope for my loved ones that we can make as good of an impression on others as Randy did for all of us. Our prayers and thoughts are with his family.
To my Husband, I love you so much you are my world and words can never really express the emptiness that I feel inside.I hate that our time here was cut so short. We had it all, falling in love so fast and so completely,a nice home, a wedding like we wanted, a dream honeymoon to Hawaii and a beautiful baby boy. We were so lucky because we had family and friends all around. Thank you for giving me the happiest times of my life!! I waited for a long time to find the perfect man and I found exactly that when I found you. You were a great husband, and my best friend and you were a great Daddy to Zane.(who loves you and misses you terribly!)Ilove you and I always will.You are the best thing that ever happened to me and You’ll always be in my heart and on my mind. I’ll take good care of Zane and make sure he remembers you and that he knows how much you loved him(and me!) Keep a watch over us from up there and guide me, you should have a great view. I know in my heart that you loved us just as much as we love you!!!!! Love always and forever,Your Wife and Son
Randy,if I’d known it would be the last time I’d see you walk out the door. I’d hug you and kiss you and call you back for more. If I knew it would be the last time I’d hear you voice. I’d hold on to every word, but just in case I might be wrong and one day is all I get I’d like to say how much I love you and take time to say the time we had was so short but God & Daddy will watch over you for me.I’LL ALWAYS LOVE YOU…’Mother’
DADDY, I LOVE YOU AND I MISS YOU VERY MUCH!!!!!!!LOVE YOUR SON, ZANEY

Randy,I can only hope you knew how much I loved you for loving my sister so much,and giving me a nephew that I don’t think I could possibly love anymore than I do. I’m gonna remember the trout we didn’t catch,the grouse that got away,and we’ll alway’s remember those turkeys. I don’t know if I ever told ya,but Earnhardt was alright!You touched the people you knew in a way that can’t be forgotten! I love ya and I miss you!
