My favorite memory with my grandpa randy was he used to take me to gas n go early in the morning for coffee. We would talk all morning then go work on the house in the afternoon and end up riding the four wheelers around half the day. Grandpa randy was always a pretty happy guy to be around and he loved sharing his stories and spending time with all of us.- Amanda Swab, Timmy Toepel, Trevor Swab, Sheila Feinstein

Randy and I grew up inseperable as cousins, and getting into mischief or just having fun everyday we could. He was always honest and open and made others laugh or smile and was always willing to be quiet and listen and then make sense out of what he heard. He is one of the last Fillin’s around, there are few males left to carry on the family name, and such a tragedy; but we still must live up to the legacy he left and the example he was. Genuine people are hard to find and we lost a great one.
