Randy’s passion for our fraternity lies with the children we help, whether it be in the Shriners Hospitals or Oxford Home for Children, and the passion of his grandfather and grandmother both serving in the craft. His grandfather Bill was a resident of Oxford Home for Children and later joined the ranks of Master Masons and coaching some 600 men through the degrees of masonry. This was just a small debt of gratitude to our fraternity.
