Randy always had a passion for cars and racing. He worked in several body shops in the Eau Claire area until opening his own. He loved NASCAR, four wheeling with his friends and mud bog racing. He fixed up a 1949 Jeep (The Twister) and won many trophies over the years. He was at his happiest while mudding. He met and made many friends in the racing community where he was known as "Spiker". When he wasn't able to race any longer, he loved spending his summer's with Jodi and his many friends at his and Jodi's camper on the Dells Pond north of Augusta at Le Mere's Campground.
Jodi and his family would like to thank Randy's friends for the great support and many kindnesses they have shown during his illness. You don't know what that meant to him, and means to us, to know he had you as a second family. Friends are the family you choose.
A celebration of Randy's life will be held Saturday, June 15, 2019 from 1 to 5 p.m. at LeMere’s Landing located on the Dells Pond, 3 miles north of Augusta at S8095 Bartig Road.
