Randolph Jr. was not only the grandson of former United States Senator Jennings Randolph, but also the son of Jay Randolph, who served as the sports director of 5 On Your Side from 1967 until 1988. “Jay Junior’s” father will carry on without his son. Frank Cusumano from 5 On Your Side said, “he was a gift to the game of golf to our area.” On November 9, 2018, on “The Morning After,” Randolph Jr. made the announcement about the diagnosis. He claimed that doctors told him he only had three to four months to live. On that episode, Randolph Jr. stated that it was a surprise for someone who is 53 years old. “I can’t even fathom the jolt it would be to somebody who is 53 and hasn’t had the one-of-a-kind and one-of-a-kind opportunities that this 53-year-old has had to take advantage of life,” I said. “I can’t even imagine.”
A GoFundMe campaign in support of his medical care brought in more than $50,000. Dave Greene, the organizer, said the following in an update that was issued on Friday: Jay had a remarkable life, and all of us who knew him were extremely fortunate to be a small part of it. Unforgettable times. The knowledge that he brought joy to so many people’s lives and made them laugh gives me some measure of comfort. There is no way that he will ever be forgotten.
