Randall loved meeting new people and making lifelong friends. He never met a stranger and was an expert at making everyone feel comfortable in his presence. He was an amazingly well-rounded human-being who could discuss a multitude of varied subjects. He had an incredible wit and a strong mind for learning. He loved being part of nature and would often write a note to a friend or family member to describe the sight he was witnessing and share it with a loved one. He was an accomplished marksman and an avid hunter. He loved researching, studying and learning any and everything about firearms.
