You can’t miss him. He is probably the hardest working guy in the group and it is also tough to not notice his cowboy hat, boots & jeans. Well, I finally took the time to introduce myself and get to know him a little bit. I found out that Randy has recently lost a lot of weight, so much so he was wearing a size 42″ waist. He was also struggling with alcoholism and has been doing very well lately. On top of that, he is proud to boast that he has met the love of his life and he is in a very good place right now. In his spare time, Randy enjoys kicking back with his guitar and singing old country music. Randy was kind enough to pose for a couple portraits in front of my camera.
