That's sad news indeed. A nicer and more pleasant gent might not be found.
Our club is a lesser place with this loss.  :(  TM

Best of the best.  He was one of the first guys I met in HSTA and he asked me to become a member.  I won’t forget him.

Oh, that is  so sad. I echo the above comments  in that Jim was one of the nicest, best people that I have had the pleasure of knowing. God Bless  you, my  friend.

I had heard that Jim was ill, and didn't have long. Sorry to hear of his passing, didn't know him well but he was always friendly and helpful.

RIP Jim, I think I heard you twisting the throttle on the way to the pearly gates.

Jim Randall Funeral Seating
« Reply #12 on: May 25, 2020, 03:29:52 PM »
Jim Randall's funeral will be Friday, May 29, at 3:00 in the sanctuary at Waverly Road Presbyterian Church, Kingsport, TN.

Due to social distancing guidelines, ushers will seat family groups for the funeral.  Overflow will be seated in the fellowship hall which will have live streaming.  If you prefer to view it at home,  live streaming will also be available on the church website: WAVERLYROADPC.ORG  Then click on You Tube.

Our family greatly appreciates the extra effort and planning of our church family to  help keep everyone safe. 
Nancy Randall & family

We watched the service via YouTube today. Very touching. Does anybody know how we could find a  copy  of Jim's letter that was read during the service?

Thank you,
