Randy and I worked together at Target and he always had a way of making a job that was tedious at times, interesting. Anywhere from prank calling other team members to coming up with the ultimate pratical joke, he always found a way to make me laugh. And all though his jokes were funny they were never mean hearted for he had the softest soal and always displayed kindness towards everyone equally. He will always be missed. Bye Randy, thanks for all the kindness and laughter you shared with me, until we meet again...

It is so sad that this could even happen to such a loving and good family. We were all so very close. The Scarpetti's and The Blackburn's ... in and out of one anothers homes; growing up together. So much was shared through the years. *Our prayers, hearts, and love are with you (as they always have been, through good and hard times). Randy will never be forgotten by us.

Randy Jr. always had a smile and a wave, and a good word for all of his neighbors. We watched him grow from a boy and saw a responsible and very likeable man emerge. A terrific family has just lost a terrific son, and for that we truly sympathize with Randall, Ann and Mark.
