Go Further

We want our kids and the generations coming behind us to stand taller and go further than us. In so many ways, my daughter Randie went further and stood taller than I ever will. In spite of countless obstacles and hardships, Randie maintained a warm, giving heart. And it’s this particular quality she possessed, I believe, is the reason her spirit is still felt and with us today. On this day, April 27th, Randie was born in Oceanside, California. I miss our long talks. One minute Randie would be telling me something personal about her life, and the next minute, in her uniquely Randie way, she would shift gears and be telling me about the reasons bell hooks (one of Randie’s many favorite authors) wanted all of the letters of her name printed in lower-case. I’m still having trouble accepting Randie’s passing. A lot of you over the past few years have helped me and our family deal with this never-ending grieving process. From the bottom of my heart, I thank you and I sincerely hope that you and all of your loved ones continue to grow and go beyond even your own expectations. – Randolph Randy Camp Randolph Randy Camp
