Randolph Cassidy Obituary

Randolph Richard "Randy" Cassidy, 64, passed away on Sunday, April 16, 2017. Randy was born on May 6, 1952 in Bogalusa, Louisiana.  He moved to Baton Rouge and was a graduate of Lee High School.  He then graduated from Louisiana State University in Construction Technology.  He was the founder and President of R.R. Cassidy, Inc., which he started in 1983. His employees, equipment, and yard were his pride and joy. Randy had an amazing career building and completing projects across the country. He would always say that R. R. Cassidy, Inc. could go anywhere and do anything because the company had the best people.  Randy was a loving and supportive husband, father, grandfather, boss and friend. His passions were work and family. He tackled both with all of his heart. He enjoyed telling a story, and with each came his laugh which could shake the room. He was a larger than life figure who created memories for all he encountered. He will truly be missed by all who knew him. He is survived by his wife of 43 years, Rebecca Jane Bolton, his three boys Randolph "Bo" Bolton Cassidy, Ben Rafferty Cassidy and Cullis Ashton Cassidy, daughters-in-law Melanie Vega Cassidy and Mary Colvin, and five grandchildren Keller Randolph Cassidy, Claire Marilyn Cassidy, Connor Randolph Cassidy, Madeline Marie Cassidy and Mayme Ellen Cassidy. He is also survived by his sisters Connie Abboud and Chris Bella, brothers-in-law Charlie Abboud and Patrick Bella, and mother-in-law Beulah "Boo Boo" Bolton. Visitation will be held at 9:30 a.m. on Friday, April 21, 2017 at St. Aloysius Catholic Church.  Funeral mass to follow at 11:00 a.m. A reception will take place after mass in the St. Aloysius Parish Hall. In lieu of flowers, please make contributions to St. Aloysius School. I am but waiting for you. For an interval. Somewhere. Very near. Just around the corner. All is well.

I called on Randy over the years in regards to his need for a larger aircraft. While we never got a deal done, Randy and I continued to speak occasionally and I knew we were friends. I will miss his honesty and his laugh. He was a Good Man.

My most sincere condolences to the Cassidy family. I was so sorry hear of Randy's passing. Although I was only his barber for a couple of years he'd been a customer of my father in law, Jimmy Fontenot, for many. His smile and laughter will be sorely missed.

Becky,Bo,Ben ,Cully
I am sadden to here the sad news of Randy. Randy was and still is one of the finest men I think I will ever meet. He was the absolute best employee a person could ever have had. The things Randy bestowed in me I will never forget. I often think of the times at the shop , Randy setting on the picnic table that big smile and laugh or that serious face and look when something was troubling him which he somehow always figured it out. Those big hand shakes matched his big heart. I will always remember everything he had done to better my life. Truely he will be greatly missed by many. I pray Gods peace and protection on the family and the whole RRC FAMILY.
With much love and appreciation

I didn't know Mr. Cassidy personally, but my son has been an employee with your company since he was 19 and he has been employed for 9 years now. He has always spoke of Randy fondly and has much respect for him and his work ethic. I'd like to offer my condolences to your family and also his work family as he will surely be missed by all.
