I remember Randy as a man that was soft spoken and kind. Living off Burton exit by Lynch st. Yes, he did offer his friend , Scott, opportunities to succeed. Always looking out for his friends. I had no idea how far his career had come! Now I request his beer to enjoy not even knowing the connection until now. I feel for the families loss having known his brother, Carl as well. I send my sympathy.

My thoughts are with Randy's family and friends. I first met Randy way back when at Cutler. Later, with the success of Perrin Sportswear I remember him telling me that he had to look at the numbers just as numbers because if he thought of them as dollars it scared him, because he was just himself and couldn't understand how he could be so successful. I can tell him how, he had a way with people, they always wanted to do their best for him. He trusted those he brought in and let them do their jobs. He got loyalty from all the people around him, by being loyal.  I have used him as an example in my own business many times and told folks if I could bottle his way with people we could make a fortune. Randy understood that every business sells the same thing, solutions. He combined that with understanding that people and how you treated them mattered no matter the industry.  Time and distance in recent years kept our lunches to catch-up with each other too few and far between but when we did it was as though no time had passed at all. Randy you will be missed.  Paul Homeniuk

Two and half years ago when I finally landed my dream job at Perrin motors I felt honored to be working for Randy. Always soft spoken and caring. I have nothing but pure respect for Randy only because that is what he gave me. He would occasionally come over to see what I was repairing .After explaining what I was fixing he would normally say "Wow,I don't know how you guys can do this, " Sometimes he told me he was impressed and that would of course make my day. If you could impress Randy that was saying something in my eyes.

I was fortunate to know Randy back in the late 70's/early 80's and he was a good person then too. It is obvious from all of the posts what a giving, caring, humble, and kind servant he was as well as a great listener and friend with a huge heart. God puts people in our path of life for a reason and Randy sure made a big impact on so many. I pray that each of us is able to take what Randy gave us in life and pass it on to someone else; be it a listening ear, a smile, encouragement, lifting someone up or just to show someone you care about them. Thank you Randy for being such a fine example to those you came in contact with. You were a blessing to so many!

Sending my love and prayers to the entire Perrin Family!  26 Years of being my friend and “brother”. You were one of the best people I knew. Always doing for others and expecting (or accepting) nothing in return.  Too many memories to count. Thank you for always being there to share a laugh (though many times it was at my expense😉) and thru the tough times- you gave me strength I did not always know I had. We are blessed to have had you in our lives. Love you honey💜

Such sad news. Randy was a man on a mission to do anything he wanted to do, and did it, while being the most soft spoken person you’d ever meet. Rest In Peace!

I'm sorry for your loss. I met Randy through my work at Cutler's. We talked daily and spent quite a bit of time together. We were friends outside of work and when he left Cutler, he offered me a job. I always wonder where life would have taken me if I was able to accept that job. I think of him often and have followed his career from Portland, MI. His passing saddens me. I will always look back on my time wirh him and smile.

Only time moves on to the next scene.  23 years of memories remain part of my heart forever. -  I'm sorry for this loss to the many lives you've touched , friends and family. Many prayers of comfort. God's wing wrapped around all of you.  I will never forget and always be thankful for the seed you planted to excel in my lifes journey. Never forget the tears you shed the day I expanded my wings.  Miss your smile most if all.  May your soul be at peace. I will see you upstairs someday. Till then guide us, nudge us, pull on God's wings to enlighten our hearts to always do the right things here on earth.  - with love Lorie Roberts   P.s. I sent a (Purple) candle.
