Lorrie Morgan additionally wrote the same in an Instagram post, where she added a photo of herself posing with Randy. The Proudheart star’s son, Jesse Keith Whitley, also expressed his grief on Facebook by sharing some pictures and opening up about the relationship he shared with Randy.

“He showed me love and showed me a relationship with Jesus even though I grew up Catholic, I kinda distanced myself a little from it. He has been the best grandfather for my kids they could ever ask for. Has come and picked me up late night when it wasn’t safe to drive and was never mad .. not even once (this happened multiple times lol)”, Jesse added.
