Their hearts were broken and I will never forget meeting his dad and the hurt he is feeling over losing his son. He told me he had a memorial in his yard honoring his son. I went and bought some praying hands and put Randal's name on the bottom of it in his memory. I tried to get those praying hands to the father to put at their son's memorial but could never find him. Those same praying hands have moved with us several times. They are now a fixture in our home and I think of Randal and his dad and mom and the hurt and suffering of giving their son's life for our country. I just made a donation to Rivers of Recovery in Randal's name. We will never forget and I will never forget meeting you and those praying hands and Randal will be always be in our hearts and in our home as a reminder.

He was the "best thing since sliced bread" and I appreciate that you all are keeping his spirit alive. I miss my bud like crazy. He was one of the first people I met when I moved to San Diego. He was warm and welcoming and the funniest person you would ever meet. He LOVED the Marine Corps and gave all that he had for all of us.
