There are about 902 million Randy Schultz stories and I added one last night. Out of an airline full of “characters”, Randy was one of, if not not best and brightest. His commentaries were the best, and if you listened you’d learn something. Not just flying, or union work, but life in general.
Last night my ten year old wise-acre son was doing what he does best and driving me crazy with it. I started telling him about my friend that I flew with years ago who was so creative with words and how he was seen by his peers. I told him how this man treated people and that if he could be like Randy, everyone he met would remember and appreciate him even years after they saw him last. He listened and smiled. I’ll continue to reinforce that lesson and that example as best I can.
I cannot express my gratitude enough to your entire family for letting Randy go fly with us on those trips and the life-lessons he imparted on everyone who shared the cockpit or meeting rooms with. He will always be family to many people. My family sends their sincere condolences and appreciation.

I met Randy after merging over from Allegheny and becoming involved in union work with him. It didn't take me long to realize that Randy was not your average everyday guy. He was both unique and very original, wore his heart on his sleeve. He was as honorable as they come, but he also didn't mind having some fun and being a bit of a prankster.
I know his family will miss him dearly, as well as his many friends, but there will be so many memories that will keep him in your thoughts forever.
My condolences to his family and thank you for sharing him with me.

What a kind man. Randy and I and Calvin went to American at the same time., I remember the night, Nov 4, when we all met in the hotel in DFW, none of the 3 of us too sure about what we’d gotten ourselves into. Randy’s humor helped ease our uncertainty. Later. after somehow surviving and finishing training, the 3 of us ended up together in the same DCA Crashpad. Interesting times as we all learned new tricks. Old Dogs! Randy powered through it with confidence and massive snoring. When he went to CLT I moved into his bottom bunk. You will be missed, my friend. But NEVER forgotten!

Please accept our heartfelt condolences.
Randy never missed an opportunity to speak warmly and lovingly of his family. The only thing greater than his personality was his huge heart.
I've often thought about Randy since I departed the airline, and the memories always positive. He once addressed the Piedmont MEC with a quote passed down from his dad: "Do you guys just wanna be right, or do you wanna do right". It made me smile inside, and i've passed it on many times over. That quote will always be Randy to me. God Bless you all.

This is what I call "Randy Hands". I think I captured the essence of his animated conversational style.

Dear LuAnn,
My deepest sympathy to you all. I’m not sure if you remember that we were in a crash pad in DCA. You come up on my Facebook page on occasion.
I remember how highly you spoke of your husband and with much pride. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers. God be with you.
Sincerely,
Margaret Hart
