Long time lurker, First time poster. Sorry if this is the wrong forum
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

Rest in Peace, Randy.

Re: Sad News
This was posted on DisBoards (in the Community Board):
Greetings:
I'm a friend of Randy Berbaum (his work supervisor), who I know has made
many trips to Disney World and frequented UseNet groups and more....just
about anything related to Disney.
I don't know Randy's usual "hangouts", but did find a couple of messages
he posted on this group. I'm hoping Randy's friends might see this and
pass this along to others.
I am very sad to report that Randy passed away suddenly, sometime Friday
night or very early Saturday morning. The coroner's preliminary report
suggests Randy suffered a massive heart attack, while in bed. An
autopsy is planned for today (Monday).
Randy dearly loved his Disney adventures. He lived for his semi-annual
trips. I was happy to approve extended vacations for him, so that he
could live his dream.
He was a great guy, whom I had the pleasure of working with for more
than 20 years.
We will miss him here...and I know his Disney friends will miss him,
too.
If any of Randy's friends would like more information, such as where to
send flowers or cards, please feel free to contact me directly. His
family says details regarding funeral arrangemnts will be made as soon
as the coroner releases Randy to his parents.
Thank You,
