Denise G. Lanxton, your beloved wife of 18 years says
My Dearest Randy (husband, lover, and best friend forever),
Thank you for the most wonderful and best years of my life and always being there for me, defending me, and protecting me. We had a such wonderful relationship that I will cherish in my heart, soul, and memories forever and ever. I will surely miss your physical presence and laughter in your voice. But, I know, without a doubt that we will indeed meet up again!
We always did everything together in life, and I was blessed and honored by God and Jesus to walk you to Heaven’s gate. I thank the Good Lord and Jesus Christ for the opportunity to experience this journey with you as one soul. May your external life live on!
Below is my testimonial to you and others of this amazing journey:
I had a very unique and blessed experience with God and Jesus during this transition and I think its very important to share the word and faith of God to others.
I want to let you know that the good Lord provided me the vivid vision of Randys walk to heaven that I will hold dear to my heart forever that most never get to experience.
I was lying next to Randy in bed with my head resting on his head, our arms together, hands held, legs touching, and becoming one soul. I was resting my eyes and had 3 very realistic images from God as Randy was taking his journey to Heaven. I was able to meet up with Randy after his walk through the valley of death as he was exiting it and saw the images of two very enormous dark trees (appeared to be large olive trees with no leaves), then looking out a beautiful sky blue type of color path I was able to see in the distance a small bright (but not blinding) circular light moving forward in the distance towards us, then when I shut my eyes again, I was able to see the image of Jesus directly in front of the bright light up very close with two beautiful heavenly angels, one on both sides of the Lords image (but, I could not make out any faces). The colors were so heavenly, vivid, indescribable, and beautiful. At the time God provided me the honor of escorting Randy to our Lord, Jesus Christ, I popped opened my eyes and at the same time the Hospice nurse jumped up and said Randy’s respiration had changed, she checked his vitals, and announced he was gone.
I am so thankful and honored that the Good Lord provided me with such undeniable and vivid confirmation of Randy’s acceptance into Heaven and allowing me the honor to walk with him to that point. I have that to cherish forever and ever. Praise God!
Let us not forget:
Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. My Fathers house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going. (John 14: 1-4)
Always Your Love,
Denise

Denise: I pray God’s comfort for you and your family in Randy’s passing. He and I only met a few times when he and I were both young. That was usually when his Dad and family passed through Carrollton, GA on their way to Florida. Glad to know he is in Heaven now!
Denise G. Lanxton says
Penny, thank you.

Denise G Crews says
Valerie, understand but please no guilty feelings. Randy knew Curt was having health issues as well and was grateful that he picked up the phone a few times to talk before Randy lost his voice for a few months before his passing. We love you guys and are praying for you guys as well. Love always, Randy and Denise.

Denise I just wanted to tell you thank you so much for making my dad so happy the last 18 years. I know how much he loves you you are his everything his other princess and his life but you were the most important one and I’m so glad that you were by his side until the very end. I couldn’t have asked for him to be with anybody but you never treated me any different than if you had me yourself I love you Mom number 2 remember that you’ll always be stuck with me which in turn is a part of him so I guess it works out for you and to be in your life and know how much my dad loves you will help me through this!!
