Randi was a dedicated mother first and foremost. She treasured her children and embraced every moment with them. She especially loved her role as Grandma to some and “Gma” to others. She had a vivacious personality and would always make friends and family laugh and smile when she was around. Randi had a special ability to make new friends everywhere she went.

As a member of the Bethany Church family, Randi will always be remembered for her faithfulness in God, and her love for her church. Her life was a living example of Ephesians 4:32, "Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you."
