Sad News
Re: Sad News
Oh, I am so sad to hear this. I am speechless.
Rest in peace, Randy, thank you for being a part of our little community here. I will think of you always this way- that you're looking down on the real monorail loop anytime you want now, from a vantage point high above it. *tears*
We won't forget you.

I was reading the rec.arts.disney.parks newsgroup today and read that one of members, Randy B, suffered a fatal heart attack in his sleep late Friday or early Saturday.
I have known Randy for about 7 years and he was a real nice guy. He will be missed

What a way to go, and at such a young age, too. :( . It's things like this that really put it all into perspective, eh?
We'll miss you, Randy. Enjoy that big, SG-free, Disney park in the sky :D: .
(btw, imo, we need a sobbing/crying smiley [yes, I realize the contradiction], the sad face just doesn't express my feelings right now enough)

A bunch of folk on evil board x have a mickey sitting and crying in their siggys. It seems to fit the bill perfectly.
I had forgotten about Randy's monorail setup at the Fort. Wish I could have met him in person. He seemed like such a great guy.
You are right Bru, he is probably looking down at his favorite place right now. Well said.

This one (which has been here for years) pretty much sums up my reaction to our loss:glendalais wrote:(btw, imo, we need a sobbing/crying smiley ... the sad face just doesn't express my feelings right now enough)

I can't believe it- that is so out of the blue. His family must be reeling. I hope that God gives them the strength they need in the coming days. We'll miss you Randy!
Petite and Proud!

Re: Sad News
Our Randy?
I am in shock. He was such a funny guy, something he wrote recently about SG brains imploding was so hilarious, so I'm glad I told him so.
Rest in Peace, Randy, you will be missed. :(

Re: Sad News
Hello, everyone.
I am Randy's cousin, and our entire family is so grateful for the
outpouring support from your posts. The funeral arrangements have not
been made yet, but when they are I will let all of you know. I will be
printing this thread off and will pass it on to his parents, so we may
use some of your comments about Randy for his service. Randy was not
one to talk much, but when he did, it was about Disney and all of the
friends he had met online. So thank you for bringing joy to his life.
Thank you again.
