In 1987, Randy married and spent the next 19 years with Diana Pratt Harward. We believe they are together now. Randy was a Hillcrest High School graduate, a life-long, music enthusiast, and had a deep love of God. He attended “The Rock of Nashville” church for many years in Tennessee. He was loved for his opposing point of view and his amazing musicianship and his HEART THAT WAS THE SIZE OF THE UNIVERSE. He loved playing the drums. He also had an incredible sense of humor. Randy was preceded in death by his wife, Diana, and his sister, Teri. He is survived by his parents, Vern and Colleen, his brother, Steve (Jo), his children, Randy (Nina), Melanie, Blaise (Troy) Glaze, and Courtney (Fernando) Lizjuan, seven grandchildren, and many nieces and nephews. Throughout his battle Randy had many people there to support him and the family.
