Today, October 14, Randy would have been 66 years old.
We shared a birthdy, but I'm a year older. He usually, many times w/Barb, drove to Miami in February for the boat show and stop by for lunch to celebrate our belated birthday. It was something we both looked forward to.
I think he enjoyed inspecting the progress on the TR, at least he said he did.
More than once he said he'd never let me work on his boats because I'd post pictures of them, as though that would b e a bad thing.
I miss Randy. He won't be coming by any more.

I was just talking last night about an experience we had with him with a common friend. Always on the mind Griz.

Happy B-Day, George.

Happy Birthday George - hope that TR engine work is coming along!

And yes, this place will never be the same without Randy around. As long as a few of the regulars remain though, he'll always be remembered.

I miss Grizz's posts here too George. He was always non confrontational. At least a lot of his contributions are archived here. Randy, even though you cannot read this I will still say Happy Birthday and I miss you. :(

Libra's are special people.................no coincidence both of You share birthdays!
Now, throw into the mix if there's a lefty among you? ............even more special.

LOL!
In fact I am a lefty, except when it comes to politics.

I too echo all of the sentiment above, never did a face up with Griz but spent a fair bit of time chatting with him. Always helpful and understanding his legacy will live on for many years.
