    Default Randy Tuttle RIP

    My friend and mentor passed this morning after a long battle with cancer.
    His contributions to SRP are many and varied. He tutored people in his home and herded cats at the meetups at Charlie?s.
    He was always willing to help. RIP in my friend
    Dave

    This is an enormous loss.
    I am truly at a loss for words.
    I will only say that to me Randy personified SRP, always.

    Rest In Peace, Randy.

    A great loss has occurred here at SRP as Randy was a great mentor and a great friend.

    When you see my profile, you'll see me sitting in a chair---Randy took that picture while I was a guest at his home. During my stay he took me to see Geezer and we had a wonderful visit.

    Those were good times and he is missed. Rest in peace my friend.
    Our house is as Neil left it- an Aladdins cave of 'stuff'.

    So sad to see this come to pass. Randy was a sage and solid friend to all. I was honored to meet him and spend some time.
    I learned pretty fast to pay attention as he spoke. He was full of life's experiences, honest, and helpful.
    Quite an interesting man, he shall be greatly missed. Will remember him always as one of this forums greatest members.

    My condolences to all of his friends and family.

    Requiescat in Pace

    I am very sorry to hear this. Randy generously welcomed me to his house and showed me the basics of razor honing and stropping.
    May he rest in peace.

    Oh No! When I first started out, he helped me with a couple of straight razors and gave me some really good tips on honing that helped me get these razors in shaving condition. It saddens my heart to hear this news, especially at this time of year!

    I will miss Randy a lot. I learned a lot from him both about razors and about people.
