Randy was a loving husband, to Sonya and a good friend to many, most of whom called him "Bobo". He was raised in the Forney Community in Cherokee County and was a graduate of Spring Garden High School, Class of 1973. He was a member of Asbury Baptist Church. Randy retired from Kirkpatrick Concrete after many years of service. He loved Alabama Football and Atlanta Braves baseball, but his main passion was fishing. He was the owner of Bobo's Jig Shack. He was known throughout the South for the jigs he made and was a great supporter of the local high school fishing teams. The friends he made through the fishing community are too numerous to name and will always be held in fond memory by his wife, Sonya.
