Randy was a man of principle. He loved his family, stock cars and football. Randy devoted his life to mechanics and being able to repair and replace any machine, from a car to a line set in a plant. He was a stock car driver and drag racer. Randy's greatest aspiration was to become both a provider and a mentor to his wife and children. He had a heart of gold, he gave his children and grandchildren anything they needed or wanted. He would give a stranger the shirt off of his back if they asked for it. Randy drove to Texas as often as he could to visit his mother, brothers and extended family. He never forgot his roots and humble beginnings. He will be loved and missed by many.

Family will receive friends on Monday, January 21, 2019 from 5 pm to 8 pm at Newcomer NE Chapel, 3047 E. Dublin-Granville Rd., Columbus, OH 43231.
