If you have ever lived through the loss of a child (no matter how old) you can make it through anything.
This memorial website was created to remember our dearest Randon Blaine Johnson who was born in Phoenix,Arizona on January 15, 1986 and passed away on August 25, 2007 in Pocatello, Idaho.
Randon always had a sparkle in his eye, & always stood up for what he believed in. Randon brought so much happiness to everyone around him. All who loved him are dealing with an unberable pain. He was an awsome Son, Husband, Father, Grandson, Nephew, Cousin, & Friend! Randon you will be deeply missed more then words can say. We all love you, & you will forever be in our hearts & memories.....MORE
In My Memory
Not one day goes by
that I dont think of you,
some tiny thing
you might have said,
some things we used to do.
But as the days keep passing by
while you're away from me,
I still relive the days you lived-
you're in my memory.
"Life isnt about waiting for the storm to pass
It's about learning to dance in the rain "
(this saying was a gift from Rylie & her family.
Rylie is the young girl who recieved part of Randons liver.)

Letter to My Son
on the 4th anniversary of your passing
The empty arms before your birth
Are Barely a memory
Oh, the joy that filled my heart
When you were sent to me
Your tiny smile lit up my sky
Then how my heart did sing
The day you came into my life
Was like a breath of spring
Watching as you quickly grew
Through all twenty-one years
First you were my little boy
Then a daddy with all new fears
Like you with your dad
Your boy, best buds
Your princess, your girl
Your babies, your world
A look at your children
Is like looking at you
Now they’re growing so fast
But they remember the past
They see your pictures and say
How they "love" you each day
We all miss you so
But we know you had to go
A greater purpose meant for you
For many, life anew
You live on in those few,
always in our hearts too

I find at the times when I miss you the most and my tears start flowing, you always let your presence be known. Today while I was crying and missing you so bad I felt your kiss on my cheek, I felt you blow on my hair. It gave me such a peaceful feeling of being loved by you.
We shared a very special adventurious grandma/grandson kind of love. You taught me to live life and to enjoy every minute I'm alive. I taught you how to lite a camp fire, drive an automatic and a stick shift at the age of 9. I loved living out in the country because there was so much adventure for you/us there.
I better go for now because my tears are starting to fall again and I can't stop them this tie.

My toe |
April 24, 2012 |
Hey bud, remember that time you broke my toe while we were wrestling around and how every time you'd ask which toe was broken, I'd point it out and you'd stomp down on it? Yeah, well, the toe healed but since you've been gone every morning I awake and each night I go to sleep my heart breaks just the same as that toe and the stomp is unbearable. I love and miss you bud!!! Love, Aunt Jeni

Rest in Peace My Friend |

Randon, I found out about your death when I glanced through the paper and saw your obituary. I was shocked and I'm not ashamed to say that I cried and cried when I found out. I still remember playing with you on the playground at recess, having you in class, and that dorky perm you always had in your hair in grade school. I know that we were just pretend 'boyfriend and girlfriend' in grade school but you always had a special place in my heart. I am so sorry that we fell apart and did not keep up with one another and that I didn't get a chance to meet your beautiful family. I will always remember and cherish all the wonderful memories that we shared. Rest in peace always my friend. You are still well loved and very missed.

My Sweet Little Randon |
June 11, 2008 |
Randon, All of this is so hard for me to believe! I am still not over the fact that you have a wife and 2 little ones, let alone not here anymore. I saw your picture in Mat's wallet the other day and I couldn't help but rethink our journey together. I thought about you & Shelby in that dang orange car, the snake you had, I think its name was Razor? Whatever its name was I wasn't very fond of him. The minute my family seen him we were off to the pet store.... ew I hated them things. The low rider bike, that inspired Mat to build one. You always seemed to have the really cool stuff... I remember birthday parties, trips to the zoo, & You. I can't remember a time I was ever mad at you.... You would think somewhere in there that I should of been mad at you at least one time. But I don't, you were always so respectful to me & brian. Whenever we would just pop in to say Hi, you always included the kids in what you was doing without a second thought. When you came to stay with us a few years ago I guess that is when I realized you wasn't a little boy anymore and you had different plans for your life . That is when we met Brittany, we instantly fell in love with her!! Yes Shelby did too!!!
We miss you Randon! We love you Randon! Give my Mom a big kiss!
You will never be forgotten!!!!!!!
Love You!!!

What a beautiful website this is, and what a wonderful way to pay tribute to such a wonderful person... although I didn't ever get a chance to meet Randon I am so grateful for him and his amazing family every day especially when I see my little girl Rylie dancing all over our house, she is alive today because of the "gift of life" that she received from Randon. Even while we were up at Primary Children's Hospital following Rylie's liver transplant last August, our thoughts were with Rylie's donors family, we didn't know them, but we knew that a family was grieving a huge loss, and our prayers were with them...how blessed we are to have found Cheri, to be able to learn about Randon, what an amazing person he is, who is loved by so many...and who has touched so many lives. Part of Randon truly lives on in Rylie, she would not be here today if it weren't for Randon's gift of life to her. Our thoughts and prayers continue to be with Randon's parents, wife, kids, and all of those who love him and miss him each and everyday. I have faith and know that you will see him again someday, when that time comes, after all of you hug him, you can bet I'll be right behind waiting to hug him, and thank him for giving my daughter a second chance....words just can't even express our families gratitude....we love you all!! Amie
