NOT only did GOD receive a Christian Soldier in Randy, HE got a Warrior..
Randy, you are loved and will be missed greatly!
Randy Gulledge was the most faithful man I know and he passed his love of the Lord on to his children. He has prepared them to live faithful, Godly lives and he will be missed.
So sorry for your loss Marci!
Earth’s loss heavens gain.
We rejoice that Randy is now with his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!! And like the Apostle Paul, Randy can say, “I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness , which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love His appearing.” (2 Timothy 4:7-8 KJV) Randy lived for the appearing of our Lord! We will miss him here on this earth. We are praying for all of the family who is left behind until we all meet in the air! And we love you.
I was so privileged to work with Randy over the years. Our main conversations was about our Lord and SAVIOR Jesus Christ. He was a great man of God.
Oh, Becky, my heart hurts for you and your babies, but I know that a lifetime of loving and trusting God has and will not stop now. As you make the necessary adjustments to keep walking and serving our Lord, may You experience His peace and comfort. Know that along with many others Bob & I will be praying daily for you.
