I have loved you from the first time I met you. I thought you were the most beautiful man I have ever seen and you still are. For the last 29 years you were my lover, husband, best friend and especially the best father/grandfather to our children and grandchild. You always amaze me by your generosity, kindness and the way you treat your friends and peers. I am so grateful for sharing your amazing life with me. It hurts that our time together was cut short by your premature passing but I will always love you, Rest in Peace my beautiful man.. Love, Your Wife

Sorry to hear about Randy,thoughts and prayers are with him and his family.

Hi Patty. Sorry to read Randy passed away. I have fond memories when Murphy and I spent time with the whole family. Will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers. I still have the napkin holder Kasey made me! Katherine A. Hachtel Willoughby Hills Ohio

Frank and Family...Very sorry for your loss. Our most Heartfelt Sympathies.

FRANK AND RANDY WERE A PART OF OUR FAMILY  THROUGH MUCH JOY AS WELL AS MUCH SADNESS. THEIR STRENGTH HAS  COMFORTED US THROUGH THE YEARS.  NOW  WE HOPE WE CAN BE SOME CONSOLATION TO THEIR FAMILIES. HE WILL BE MISSED

I miss my BUDDY!  The pain is immense but the memories are cherished!  My thoughts and prayers for Patty, Kasey, Greg and mostly, Peyton.  Randy loved his family but he could not stop talking about Peyton!  Randy, as you know, you forever changed my life and I appreciate it. As our bond showed, I will never forget it.  Ironically, as I begin to write this, I look up and on my desk....and the ONLY picture on my desk is one of you and I (and Frank) at a golf outing.  It was an honor to know you and to be considered your friend.  Rest in Peace brother!  Doug Behrens

RANDY AND FRANK WERE A PART OF OUR FAMILY THROUGH  MUCH JOY AND MUCH SADNESS. WITHOUT THEM LIFE WOULD HAVE BEEN MUCH MORE DIFFICULT.  I'M GLAD I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO LET RANDY KNOW THAT.  HE WAS VERY SPECIAL.  WILL MISS HIM !!

Patti and family, Randy will be missed by all who knew and loved him. His loving and generous spirit is reflected in all of you and his many friends. I'm thinking of you today and wishing I could be there with you. Love you, Helene

You were part of my childhood memories!  You were always such fun and I loved being around you when the folks were visiting.  I especially liked those black sneakers of yours and you had the best marbles ever!  I actually took one home, then felt so guilty I ran back to your house and Aunt Elsie opened the door and I just threw it back in the house! I will miss you, cousin.  Love, Jackie

I've only known Randy for a few years but he became like a brother to me and  to my late brother Jeff. I will never forget the friendship we had. He will truly be missed!! Sincere condolences  and our prayers to the entire family.

The first time I met Randy was with his brother Frank.  Within a short time, I knew that he was the type of person who anyone would enjoy being around to experience his great sense of humor, love of life and loyalty.  My deepest sympathy to his family and loved ones.

I didn't know Randy long...or well - but my brief time with him at IABC events and in the Brotherhood clubhouse in Little Italy gave me a snapshot of his character, personality and love of life. Randy and his loving family are in my thoughts and Prayers.

 Patty, Greg, Kasey and Peyton, Our thoughts and prayers are with all of your family  during this time. We will miss his smile and visits on his four wheeler to our home.  Andy and Pam Parker and Family.

We are very sorry to hear of Randy's passing.  Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.  He will be missed.

Saddened to hear of Randy's passing. Last time we met, down in Chardon, had a nice conversation, reminiscing about the good old days, football at Willoughby South High(1967), the War, work and family. Thought I would be seeing him at the next reunion.  I know all his South High friends will miss him immensely. He was a great, thoughtful guy, a friend to all.
