Rande and Anita Caryl (Yates) were married September 11, 1976 and made their home in Wagoner all their lives. Rande was always for anything supporting Wagoner, especially sports activities.

He was the first coach for Kael's baseball team, who honor him this year with his initials in a star on their uniforms. Rande loved to golf and was a member of the Wagoner Golf Association.
