The death of Uncle Randy is a blow to the Holland family. He kept us on our toes and closely knitted together. He leaves a legacy of love taught by his parents and will forever be in our hearts and minds. Prayers go out for his wife Fran, his children, and all who loved him, that comfort be found in God's promise of a resurrection of those who die (Acts 24:15). Imagine! Living without the threat of death, no sickness or suffering, all tears of sorrow removed forever (Revelation 21:4).

RIH Uncle Randalph. My Great Uncle was the patriarch of our family.. He was a true trail blazer accomplishing so much in his time in this realm. He was a Veteran, College Grad, Business owner, Husband and Father. With all his accomplishments the one thing that will be his best legacy to me is how he showed us the importance and the appreciation of family and how to organize and implement within our own families. That it is important to know your own family history! my uncle research our family history over thirty years ago, before ancestry.com and kept our tradition of our annual family reunion going continuously for over 50 plus years!!!! Something that the younger generation will PROMISE to keep going and make more effort to pass on to our children. He was a great Husband, Father, Grand Father, Uncle, Brother, Friend, Leader and Role model. I wish I would have express that to him. All the admiration that we had for his character and what he truly did mean for our family. He will truly be missed! The Holland family will as love him and he will forever be in our hearts minds and spirits! I know he is looking down on us, and will be our angel, right along with Uncle Dale, Uncle Bunny and Uncle King. Love always your Great Niece.
