He married Susan Draper and together they had a daughter Leslie whom he adored. Although they divorced they remained good friends. He married Kori in 1993 and always said he met the love of his life and soul mate. Kori and Randy traveled the world, most of the time with his in-laws Tom and JoAnn and Colleen and Gary. Too many places to mention but every trip was the best. Randy’s greatest gift was his ability to let people know how much he loved them and would do anything for the ones he loved.
