Randy's passions included a lot of outdoor activities. In summer you would find him on the golf course and in winter, you would find him in the woods. He played in many pro-ams and was an accomplished golfer. His love of the West took him on several successful hunts from Nebraska to Alaska. In the spring you could find him hunting ramps and mushrooms, mostly just to share them with friends. One of his favorite pastimes was taking his four grandchildren to his mountain retreat "The Four Seasons" in Lahmansville.

Randy is survived by his sister Rebecca Alt Lanhardt of Petersburg; two nephews, Shane (Katy) Lanhardt of Gainsville, VA and Seth (Jennifer) Lanhardt of Williamsport, MD; two great nephews Joseph and Samuel and one expected in January.
