Hey guys, it's with a heavy heart that I bring you guys the news - it is, in fact, true that we have lost Randy. I'm sorry I got everyone's hopes up on the other thread, but I really did believe, from what I had gathered up to that point, that he was still with us. I'm very, very sorry for that.
I finally tracked down his obituary in his home town of Baton Rouge, LA. I've attached a jpeg image, because it was all I could get. A mutual friend in Eugene actually did the legwork on this and sent it to me.
As most of you would suspect, Randy was a very private person. He was never married and had no kids, so it was hard to track him down that way. In a way, I'm kind of saddened that I was "successful" in getting this far, but at least it brings us closure.
Sorry for the fuzzy image, but if you enlarge it, it is legible. RIP, Randy, you will be missed by many.
