His down-to-earth nature makes everyone feel at home, whether you’re a long-time member or a first-time visitor. I know because out of all the guests we’ve brought to church, they all leave there saying how much they like that “guitar guy.”
But Randy’s impact on our community extends far beyond the church walls. As a dedicated family man, Randy’s love for his beautiful family is evident in absolutely everything he does.
Whether he’s cheering on his kids at local sports events or planning family adventures in our stunning backyard, Randy IS the spirit of what it means to be a devoted husband and father in Lassen County.
Speaking of our backyard, Randy has a knack for capturing the breathtaking beauty of Lassen County through his camera lens. His photography isn’t just a hobby, it has become a gift to our entire community.
From the Eagle Lake to the rugged peaks of Lassen Volcanic National Park, Randy’s award-winning shots have put our slice of Northern California on the map. It’s no exaggeration to say that his work has garnered national recognition, with several prestigious awards under his belt.
My favorite photos are of the wildlife that he captures so flawlessly.
What truly sets Randy apart is his ability to juggle all these roles while remaining incredibly humble.
Whether he’s leading worship on Sunday, capturing a stunning sunset, or volunteering his time at Awana’s or Vacation Bible Study – Randy approaches each task with the same genuine enthusiasm and care.
His talents, his dedication to his family and students, and his ability to showcase the raw beauty of Lassen County through his art make him an irreplaceable part of Lassen County. Randy doesn’t just remind us why we love this place; he shows us through his actions, and his heart.
So, the next time you see Randy around town, whether he’s setting up his camera for the perfect shot or strumming his guitar at church, take a moment to appreciate the passion and heart he brings to our community. Lassen County wouldn’t be the same without him, and that’s why he is one of the reasons I love where we live.
