Randy has always been a one-man band, seamlessly running his studio, playing on tracks, arranging music, creating graphics for projects, typesetting books and, yes, making the best sourdough bread via his company Random Acts of Breadness.

Then they found a brain tumor.

The tumor was undetected for months because Randy didn't have the usual symptoms: headaches or visions trouble. But while he appeared normal this mass was affecting his ability to think clearly, to be logical and handle his usual work load. Randy hasn’t been able to finish the jobs that provide his income: studio work, typesetting, graphics and running a bakery. This mass was blocking his abilities.

When will he be able to get back to work? We don't know at this point.

Because he has been impaired the last few months, their income has taken a huge hit. All seemed fine, a bit off maybe, but then when a deep dive occurred on finances and jobs that were to be finished, nothing was fine.

They need help.

In addition to the drop in income, both their washing machine and dryer broke this week, Cyndie’s car isn't working and now their cat needs a vet. They have mortgage payments and business rent due. Cyndie is trying to keep up with the tasks at hand while Randy is still in the hospital she is visiting him regularly and overseeing his care. It is dire. Enough is enough. They need some relief. Help!

Cyndie, the ever-devoted partner, just needs less worry in her life right now. Getting some bills handled will be the best help we can give her. She is overwhelmed and exhausted.

Her smile has warmed the hearts of all who know her.

I know I have been in awe of her for years, with her constant devotion to her neighbors and friends.

Randy and Cyndie have always given back to their communities, always been there to jump in and help.

Anyone who has worked with him in the studio or eaten his bread will agree.

Cyndie has always welcomed all with a cup of coffee or tea, something to go with it and that genuinely beautiful smile that lights up a room and our hearts.

Anything will help.

Spread the word far and wide so Randy can get well and Cyndie can sleep at night. The more who contribute even $20 will get us to our goal faster
