Dear Anne-Marie and family,
My sincere condolences to you and your entire family. I know the Bellis community has lost an incredible man. Though I’ve only met Randy once back in 1993, I’ve always kept nice memories of my trip to Bellis. Thanks to photos and updates from grand-ma and mom, I felt like we were always connected to him. My mom was so proud to show me the bracelet he had told her to buy upon her last trip in September. My thoughts go out to Adrian and Emily during this difficult time. I’m sending you courage, strength and positive thoughts to help you get through these heartbreaking times.
My apologies for not being at the service this week.
Sending my deepest condolences to you all.
Best,
Melissa

Dear Russ Family! My deepest condolences! Randy was one of my best childhood friends growing up in Bellis. We had so much fun together hanging out and playing sports. Even though I haven’t seen Randy for a long time, I’ll never forget his kind and caring nature and sense of humor. I wish you all the best as you cope with your loss. Take care!
