#208022 - 10/10/24 10:25 AM Terrible Loss in the Randall Family
BladesNBarrels Knife Enthusiast Registered: 09/19/05 Posts: 1418 Loc: East Tincup General Store,Colo...	Mitchell Harrison posted this notice from the Randall Family on Facebook. The Randall family has suffered a terrible loss. We were asked to post this. May his memories be a blessing. It is with deep sadness and heavy hearts that we inform you of the death of Michael Thomson Randall, who passed away earlier this week. Michael will be missed by us all. He was 56. Services will be held privately for family at a future date. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Civilian Marksmanship Program (https://thecmp.org/support/) The Randall Family Gary, Jason, and Caroline

Michael and I were (both) "shooters" and many a friendly talk with him was dedicated to this subject. He will certainly be missed by me and no longer will folks be "phone-greeted" by that soft, warm voice.

Praying for the entire Randall Family. _________________________ Ken Lambert RKCC CM-020 RKS#3210 NRA Benefactor Life Member AGCA Member TACA FOP

pyronaute Knife Enthusiast Registered: 10/08/05 Posts: 178 Loc: Lancaster, Penna.	During a trip to Florida in March, 2024, I made a second pilgrimage to South Orange Blossom Trail to visit the shop and tour the 'new' museum for my first time. Michael was a gracious docent at the museum and despite his ordinary avoidance, consented to allowing me to capture his portrait. I had many telephone interactions with him over the years, so meeting him in person was a real highlight of my visit. Condolences to the entire Randall family. Michael's gentle soul will be missed.
