Randy met the love of his life Vickie in Junction City, Oregon in a city park and began their life later on finally settling in Graham, Washington with their family. He was a member of the Sheet Metal Union #66 located in Kirkland, Washington. For Randy, family was very important and he shared that with his children through a variety of things such as supporting them in school activities and family fun time. He was an avid fisherman, loved crabbing and camping in the great outdoors with his family which the children still remember and enjoy. You could always find him tinkering with something to see what made it work and if it was broken he usually found a way to make it work again. Randy was an avid SEAHAWKS fan so go SEAHAWKS, this is their year. He now has a front row seat at all the games. One of his favorite places to spend time and have no worries was at the ocean fishing, crabbing and feeling the cool breeze blow. He will be deeply missed, but we know that Randy is now walking on the streets of gold with his Lord.
