Shortly after meeting Randi at UNC-G in 1974, I was invited to visit Rehobeth Beach to stay at the Hearn family beach house. 1 day, when Randi joined me at the beach, the waves were perfect for body-surfing. We started competing to see who could get the longest ride. 1 exceptional wave, the ocean spat us out on the beach. We laughed so hard that we didn’t notice that Randi’s bikini top was catching a ride in on the next wave. It’s June 12, 2025 and I’m just discovering that Randi passed 14 years ago. She was the biggest of Beach Boys fans and Brian Wilson died yesterday. God Speed Randi and my belated condolences to the Hearn family.
