Deb,
I am so sorry about Randy. He was a wonderful man and I loved our conversations when you brought the girls into West Lancaster.
You were always so happy together and Randy always wore a smile. You loved and cared for each other. That was so evident when you were together.
I know how much he will be missed by you and all he knew.

Deb:
I am very sorry to see about Randy’s obituary in this mornings paper. Randy and I spent many memorable days working in engineering at Fincor as I sat right next to him for a lot of years ( about 15) in Engineering. He and I compared notes on just about everything that would come up.
Randy was a good friend and co-worker

So sorry. As a neighbor, I have fond memories of our high school years in Wheatland Hills. Many good times spent at the Murrs.

So sorry to see of Randy’s passing. May he RIP. Great times when you two came to visit me at the Villa Nova when i was tending bar or making you pizza or whatever you wanted. We had some great laughs in that bar. Whether i was working or just enjoying some beverages with the both of you. You and Deb were one of my favorite customers.
RIP RANDY
THERESA
