I want to join everyone in expressing my deepest sadness in the passing of Randy. I have many memories ….. and “quarters”… LOL allowing me to continue my “Treaty speech”…. LOL :) Randy truly was one of our Salmon Warriors in the spirit of Dutch Kinley, Sam Cagey and Jimmy Wilson. And later became the same champion of shellfish!!! Who knew???? ….. Guess it was my & Lorraine’s fault we could bring back enough salmon for him to make a living and had to after the shellfish too. I don’t know about his picture you posted though, looks like one of him coming out of a State or NOAA meeting…. RLOL…. No one fought harder for our Treaty rights. Randy, you were a “hard-nosed” warrior and didn’t give much. We are all better off having you in our governmental forums fighting for our natural resources. Our prayers are with the family and friends in the grieving process, but our great and funny memories will help in the healing.
God Bless, W. Ron Allen, Jamestown S’Klallam

Randy was always a compelling and inspiring voice for salmon recovery and treaty rightsprotection. We shall miss his warm heart, his welcoming handshake, and his kind smile.
With deepest condolences to those he held dearest, his family.
