Randy was the one constant through the years as the business changed hands from Eastern Iowa Door to Wayne Dalton, to Adams Door, until his retirement.
Rudy had a heart of gold, who would do anything for anyone. He was in his element in the great outdoors, enjoying camping, mushroom hunting, fishing, deer hunting, as well as coyote hunting, and playing cards at the Chub Lodge. His most treasured moments were of his fishing trips with best friend, John Niederhauser on the Kenai River in Alaska
After his retirement, his greatest joy was spending time with his grandchildren.
