Beth R Davidow wrote a sympathy message

“Nearly 25 years ago, I had the pleasure of sailing to Antarctica with Rand & Laura to re-create Ernest Shackleton's epic adventure. Rand & Laura renewed their vows on South Georgia and became most dear to me. Over time we regrettably lost touch and only last week I learned of Rand's passing. My heart is saddened to know this lovely man has left this realm. My deepest condolences to Laura, Rand's family, and to all whom he touched with his kindness and life.”
