RANDY GILL February 2002 Our beloved husband, father, son, brother and friend has been called home to be with the Lord. Randy was born in Ventura, CA, where he grew to be a man who loved sports and life itself. Randy spent many happy years in Winnipeg where he found Jesus his Lord and Saviour. Besides the love he showed his wife and son, he touched the lives of everybody he crossed paths with and will always be remembered for his gentle nature, big smiles and hugs that were just as big.

I played football with Randy at Hollywood High and have nothing but good memories of him. He was a great competitor and a great player. But more importantly he was a wonderful teammate to be with. He always had a big smile and always cheerful. You could feel his good heart. I'm sorry he passed and he will be in my prayers. - Posted by: Jeff Walker (Teammate, Hollywood High ) on: Jan 22, 2018
