I am gonna miss Randy we had some long car rides together and talked a lot. We did not agree on everything but concentrated on the things we did agree on and I always learned something . Randy really loved his family and I am sure that they already know that but his conversation always had some sprinkling of duck hunting trips with Grandkids or some other adventure with his family. Randy said something to me at a time when I needed to hear it “Leaders are temporary politicians are forever” I just wish that one leader would have stuck around a little longer .

I spent many hours debating with Randy over the years, and he was always a very smart, committed, and vocal proponent of his tribe’s treaty rights. Even though we disagreed often, we developed a mutual respect for each other, and it is sad to see one of the “old guard” go, one who was around for all the fights Northwest tribes had to endure in order to protect our treaty rights. RIP Randy, I will miss you.
