While most reporters want to cover the Toronto Maple Leafs and Blue Jays, Randy preferred amateurs, those athletes who competed for the pure joy and exhilaration of sport. He had a respect for those athletes who, in turn, respected him and his ability to tell their stories<br />
in an accurate, true and compelling manner. I am not sure there is another sports reporter in Canada who has dedicated h<br />
He was a soft-hearted,considerate and compassionate person. <br />
He was awarded the Dr. Tom Pashby Sports Safety Fund Award and quickly handed the $10,000 cheque to the Dovercourt Boys and Girls Club. <br />
I am not sure there is another sports reporter in Canada with his unique encyclopedic knowledge of all our elite athletes.<br />
I will miss him and his phone calls on both a personal and professional level. Lois Kalchman</p>
