Randy, your passing leaves an emptiness that cannot be filled. You were such a huge part of my life for so long, and I’m thankful for each and every memory that I have with you. In goodd times, and bad, we shared love and laughter. Rest In Peace, my one-of-a-kind friend! It’s good to know you’re with your wife, and your boys again. Thoughts and prayers are with everyone who knew and loved this amazing man
Randy was my racing buddy and partner for 40 plus years. He raced my 100.5 race truck and won the pro truck championship. We raced all over the country. The most famous cars were the 007 fastback cutlass and the cornvette super late model which ended in a corn field. What a guy and super welder and fabricator. I will miss you the 0 pro truck owner and driver Mike Davis.
