Randy and his beloved wife, Janette M. (Schlegel) Moyer just celebrated their 33rd wedding anniversary last Thursday, July 13th.
From a young age Randy enjoyed cars. He had a passion for the intricacies of working on cars and trucks and that led to his career as owner and operator of Randys Auto Repair in Freemansburg.

Randy found peace in going on vacation with his wife and loved taking her to concerts. Randy had a unique personality and always made a lasting impression as was displayed when he entered the ZZ Top fan contest and won tickets to the concert by shaving the bands name into his beard.
