He always had a smile on his face. He loved his job and helping people. Loved working with him over the years.
He was always a nice guy i think his last funeral for my family was my grandma rip Randy
Randy was a caring professional who was highly invested in the good service he provided. He did much to restore and maintain the reputation of the local funeral homes where he served. He ad Pat worked to be a part of the community. I appreciated working with them and especially their final care for our family members. May the Lord bless and keep all who grieve with comfort and peace. May His face shine on him with eternal light.
The loss of Randy is a hard one because he was a great compassionate man. I pray that his family and friends can feel all of the comfort that Randy gave to us!!
He was such a wonderful person. Always so caring to the families mourning their loss. He was the best! So sorry for your loss.
Randy handled so many of our families services, he was so kind and friendly.
I am sure I speak for all of us when I say how saddened we are to hear of his passing, please know we will keep you in our thoughts and prayers.
This man was an amazing person. I have wonderful memories of him. His kindness affected my entire family. Rest In Peace Randy!! My sincere condolences to his family!
My condolences to Randy’s family. He was a heck of a guy and we will miss him. He did several funerals for our family and friend’s and was always very professional. He never held it against me for giving him a speeding ticket. Haha
Very sorry to hear this. Sending hugs love and prayers to Nicole and the rest of the family. A very caring man.
I am so sorry for your loss. I knew Randy through my brother, James Kirkpatrick and I knew Pat through Barb Kirkpatrick.. They were part of their family so mine as well. They will be greatly missed.
Randy I will miss you dearly. We were as close as non-brothers could be, even after 45+ years being separated it was like we had never missed a beat when we finally got to talk to one another again. Well my friend our plans did not happen yet again with us getting together this summer so I guess when god calls me I know I will have you waiting at the gate to guide me in. Till then take care see will see each other someday.
Randy was a grade ahead of me and a good man I lost contact with him, but he knew what he wanted to do in life and he did it. He died too young sending lots of prayers to his family.
