shirleyb Posted August 7, 2003 Share Posted August 7, 2003 Hi everyone, Randy passed away tonight. He had surgery last Saturday because of an infection. He just wasn't strong enough anymore. His heart quit. I am missing him so much already. His birthday is Sunday and I have a stack of cards that friends had sent that I was saving for him to give him all at once. We thought we would have alittle more time but God said it wasn't to be. We prayed for miracles and we got them. We had friends show up at the oddest of places just when we needed them. We had enough time for the kids to see him while he was feeling good. He had time to know and accept that this was God's will and it was totally in God's hands. Please do not take for granted the ones you love. Try to make a difference. We all knew it could happen any time but we were praying for more. I love you Randy.

Donna G Posted August 7, 2003 Share Posted August 7, 2003 Shirley, I don't know what to say it is such a loss. I am so sorry. I read here that every one had a chance to see him and he had a time to accept his illness. I hope Michael met him at the gate and has planned his birthday party. I know Randy will always watch over you. Praying for your peace and your families. Donna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
