For 30 years his businesses-built a legacy of exceptional custom cabinets helping people realize beauty in their dream homes.

Beginning in the 1970’s he had a passion for Rock N Roll music played on his state-of- the-art stereo system which he enjoyed to the very end. He was proud of his original “retro” stereo equipment and worked to enjoy playing his favorite Led Zeppelin music often.

Randy also developed a passion for bike riding. He had been riding bikes as a child, but his passion developed when his friend Dan Crawley introduced him to “high tech” bicycles and then he never stopped riding. He would cycle to work for years and enjoyed the “high” of riding daily on the bike trails.

He is survived by his brother n laws Wes Wade, and Larry Santistevan as well as his nephews Patrick Santistevan, Adam Wade and niece Tiffany.
