Randy taught adult Sunday School classes at Rutledge Second Baptist Church and Luverne First Assembly for many years. One of his favorite Bible books to teach was Revelation.  He also served in several other capacities in whatever church he attended.

In 2018, he received his chaplain’s certification from Biker Bible Institute and he was a founding member of Three in One Motorcycle Ministry; he and Beth operated Living Water Coffee House in Luverne, where they held Bible studies and church services every week.

Randy always liked to point out the US and world maps on the wall at the shop; they both featured pins where folks passing through Luverne would stop for a cup of coffee and a visit, and they always invited them to add a pin to their hometown.

They had a ministry to the “invisible people” – those that most people overlook.  He always said he had a “talk to me” face, and people shared their life stories with him because he was a good listener.

Randy loved riding his motorcycle and studying the Bible. 

In addition to this, Randy loved playing jokes on people at unexpected moments. Randy was a people person, and his infectious smile drew folks to him every day.

His main goal was to point people to Jesus.
