CONFIDENT IN EVERYTHING. "I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel,” Maya Angelou. “This is my favorite quote because, with the people I have in my life, I may forget what they said or did, but I will always remember how they made me feel. My friends and family make me feel the most loved and supported so just being around them makes my day ten times better!” says Senior Randy Faith.
Randolph Christian Faith, son of Stacey Faith, was born on February 2, 2006. In addition, Randy has one younger brother, Andrew Faith. Randy has grown up his entire life on a small farm in Oketo, Kansas. When Randy was asked who impacted his life the most he states, “My Grandmother, she was my spiritual mom. She influenced me to follow God and she led me to be a part of music and the art programs before she passed, which is why I will always carry the things she taught with me!” While on the path his grandmother led him, he accomplished many amazing things. Randy's favorite one is becoming the First chair for the flute section in the Valley Heights band. Randy has been involved in four years of art, band and vocal along with 2 years of FFA.
Randy plans to attend Colby Community College to get a degree in horse production and management. He then dreams of attending a Christian college to get a bible study degree. When asked where he sees himself in ten years, Randy states, “I see myself with 6 years of college under my belt and with a family business that started fresh in training horses since my family lost theirs. I also see myself doing something in the ministry as well!”
Randy enjoys hanging out with friends but also loves to occasionally be a homebody! Randy goes on to tell us his favorite memory here at Valley Heights, “I will never forget the time I first came to Valley Heights, I was going to "Bethlehem Revisited" - a live Nativity scene with FCA and two of my friends had to chase me down the highway because I forgot my phone. I was going 65 and they were going 80 in their suburban. It was funny for the two of them but embarrassing for me.” After being asked how he wanted to be remembered for his time here at Valley Heights he states, “I want to be remembered as a person who was kind, attentive, funny, supportive, and loving. I also want to leave here as a person who is confident in everything.”
