Dear Jerry, Cheryl and Romana, I was saddened to hear of the loss of Randy. Obviously when I think of Randy I reflect on all the great times at the ole' swimming pool and at Tooele High School. While Randy possessed great athletic skills in football, baseball, basketball and swimming, I will always remember how he always conducted himself with dignity. I remember he was modest as leader when his teams won and always credited his teammates. When his teams came up short, his disappointment was obvious, but he conducted himself in a professional, dignified manner. A long time ago when Randy was 12 and playing on the Tooele American League all-star team, the announcer announced over the loudspeaker that "Rose struck out his last time at bat." Jerry told me, "Randy won't like that." A few pitches later he drove a line drive into the outfield. That's symbolic to me how Randy lived his life. I will always remember Randy as a man of action, rather than words. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your families during this time of sorrow. Sincerely,
Charlie Roberts
