He passed away the day after christmas, and just a few weeks afterselling his black 914 with a v6 conversion. I met him only once a couple of years ago when he posted a WTB or trade ad for a starter. I happened to have an old one on the shelf and gave him a call. We met near where he was living in SE portland, snd he told me about his situation with his car. He was trying to get it completed so that he could sell it to help with his financial situation.

I gave him the starter and asked if there was anything else I could help with. He said no, but he'd keep my number just in case.

I got a call from a woman yesterday asking if I knew Randall. The name didn't ring a bell, until she mentioned the black 914. She said he had finally sold the 914 a few weeks ago, and that he had passed from natural causes either on CHristmas Day or the 26th.

I didn't know Randal and only met him the one time, but I thought the world should know.

I met Randal a few months back. He posted an ad for a bunch of stuff free. I ended up helping him clean out a storage deal and making a dump run for him. I really didn't need any of the stuff so I gifted it on to another member.

We chatted for a while about 914's, life and stuff. In the short time I spent with him it was clear he was a good soul. I only wish I'd met him sooner.
RIP Randal...
