Thank You, Frank!

Post by No1UNo »

I just want to give thanks, once again, to Frank Santa Cruz, who keeps on visiting this site and sharing his memories and conversations with Randy Rhoads. We here at Ultimate Rhoads are SO BLESSED to have one of Randy's best friends drop by from time and time and let us in on his friendship with our favorite guitarist and give us so much more insight into the amazing musician and even more incredible human being that Randy was.

Sometimes, I feel, we don't realize just how lucky we are here.

God Bless You, Frank!

Yes, for sure- thank you for taking the time to share in the personal memories that you have of Randy. I know there are a few others that were also close to him and/or the family- and I think that each word combines quite nicely to carry Randy's legacy forward.

sidenote: what is the RR FB page up to- 85k now (I haven't been on in a while) hopefully, Randy's memory will continue to flourish on the net- and younger people keep discovering what the music and legacy he left beyhind!
