So sad to learn of this. I will always remember the fun nights of doing karaoke. Randy was an amazing person.
Our prayers go out to the Staples Family. We were so sorry to hear about your loss. Our thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time please accept our deepest sympathies.

Randy and I worked together for a long time! We went to Reno and Houston and those were the best trips of my UF career because of who I was with. He was a great co-worker but he was always my friend first! Whenever I needed advice, he was the first person I called! When I needed something UF related, I called him because if Randy didn’t know we were all in trouble! I am very thankful for him and our friends. God Bless you buddy!
WHY... why. He was a really good grandpa and i used to like him, thats when BAM! they took him away from me. Why does it happen!?!?!

My prayers go out to the family. I really enjoyed working for Randy while he was over Asset Management. He always had your back and also made me laugh. He will be missed by all.
Sending love and condolences from North Carolina. I'm a consultant and worked with Randy in his last few years before retirement. He had the trifecta of personality traits that I loved in a co-worker: smart, hard-working, funny. I loved his sense of humor and I think he appreciated mine too. It may be a small thing, but having someone that you can accomplish things with, and also share a laugh with, can make a work day really special. He will be sorely missed.
