Sylvia, I am so sorry to hear this. Prayers for you and family. I will always remember when he worked at the car parts store on corner beside culligan, he would always yell hello to me. Telling me to stay out of trouble. 🙂

Randy was the neighborhood watchman. He will be missed. Lots of prayers for the family.
Randy was our neighbor for 20 years! Our kids loved teasing him about being a Michigan fan and you could always count on him talking you about his dogs or Trump. 😊 we will miss his witty humor when we would see him in the alley.
So sorry to hear of your family’s loss. Randy was a very nice guy and I always enjoyed my small chats with him when we would run into each other while out on shopping sprees.

We are so sad to read of Randy’s passing. We sure had a lot of fun times while working at Volvo, especially gathering at the bowling alley or the Orrville Moose. It was always nice to run into him while out & about in Wooster. Hal & I send our condolences to Sylvia & his family.
Reggie, my sincere condolences on the passing of your brother. May the memories over the years bring you comfort at this challenging time.
So sorry to hear of my passing of a long time “VOLVO” friend. We all had some great time together there.
Sylvia, I am so sorry to hear of this – keeping you and your family in my thoughts and prayers
I’m so sorry Sylvia. Randy was one of my favorite people from Volvo. In the last few years I would see him at every garage sale, and every time I went to Walmart. I will miss him and think of him every time I go to a garage sale or Walmart.❤️
sorry for your loss your all in my thoughts and prayers
When my husband and I was out in a store shopping last fall. My husband was wearing his Michigan Hat. So that started a conversation with Robert. My husbands name is also Robert. We lived in Michigan for 20 years and my daughter in law is a graduated of UofM. We all just met for that brief few minuets. So sorry to read he passed away.
