<p>My condolences, we always had great interactions with Randy. So sorry to hear of this... He was no doubt a friend to landowners and leaves a huge hole in so many ways.</p>

<p>Skip: I am shocked and saddened to read this news. Randy and I attended LSU Law at the same time, and he and I had continuing but infrequent interactions back in the 1980's when I was in private practice, both when he was at Blanchard Walker, and then when he formed his own firm. </p>
<p>Great guy, great attorney.</p>
<p>My condolences.</p>

<p>Thank you, John. Randy liked to joke that he was the token "mineral owner attorney" on the many O&G related boards on which he served. The preponderance of his fellow board members were attorneys from big law firms with big O&G company clients. Although his obituary covers some of those boards on which he served, here is a detailed list from his CV.

<p>Thank you, John. Randy liked to joke that he was the token "mineral owner attorney" on the many O&G related boards on which he served. The preponderance of his fellow board members were attorneys from big law firms with big O&G company clients. Although his obituary covers some of those boards on which he served, here is a detailed list from his CV. He interviewed the vast majority of high school graduates in the ArkLaTX who applied to attend Harvard over many years. We were members of the Riverfront Merchants Association and he and I started Shreveport 2000 Coalition in 1998. We had a standing lunch appointment on Tuesdays for fifteen years. Much of what I can contribute to GoHaynesvilleShale.com, he taught me. I miss my friend.</p>
