When I was still working over at TV Squad, I wrote a piece called I want a date with Stacy Keibler. Well, this past weekend I not only finally got to meet my former boss at TV Squad, Keith McDuffee, but also the chance to at least talk to Stacy.

Randy passed away this past Friday at home surrounded by his family.
