Leave a tribute for Randolph “Randy” Dacudao
Leave a tribute
I worked with Randy over his entire career at GM/GD. We used to play chess at lunch where Randy showed me how to play with a timer clock. I was never able to beat him. He was also a member of the tennis league where his heavy topspin serve would more than make up for his shorter stature and often lead to him winning the match. He was quiet and hard working and took great pride in his design and drafting skills. I was very saddened when his debilitating disease, at such an early age, resulted in the regrettable but necessary decision to place him on long term disability. I offer my sincere condolences to his family and friends during this difficult time. I know he will be missed by all of us who knew and respected him at work.
Our sincere condolences to Rosemary, Kimberly & Clint at this sad and difficult time. Randy was a good friend and neighbour. He loved to laugh and have visits with us a few doors down in his neighbourhood. He enjoyed sharing foods from his culture for us to enjoy. He was such a friendly neighbour and we are saddened by his passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Rosemarie,Kimberly (Bart) and Klint My heartfelt condolences at the loss of Randy. Randy was a wonderful husband and father and I know how much you will miss him. He loved his family so much and he also loved his pickup truck he use to drive. Randy also loved his kitty cat. Heaven has gained a new angel. Randy will be always be with you in spirit. Hugs to the family. Deb
