I worked for Pro in the 80's. Rand was a great guy. Every morning when I arrived he had that big smile, then would proceed to sing a Broadway song "Kkk- Katie..."- he was proud of his acting and especially his role as "Charles" from Gone with the Wind.
I worked 24s out of Pasadena when the morgue next door was fully operational and got an eye full when new "clients" were brought in for processing. Also worked the Van Nuys station that was full of pranksters. One night my crew arrived back at the station 1am where I found my mattress on the roof! The was hell to pay and my mattress was in it's proper place relatively quickly. More pranks followed but now these are some of my best memories... how we dealt with the stress of tragedy in our work. I loved my work and the people I worked with. Thanks Rand for the opportunity ansvthe memories!
Nowadays I have 4 sons in college and work a full time job as Licenced Psychologist and part time CIF Basketball Official.
