She’s giving away $250 airline vouchers to four lucky parents, enabling their children in college to visit them.

Taking to her Instagram handle, the mother of three wrote, “I remember how special those moments were when I got to visit Patrick and Jackson at college. And when they came home and surprise visited me, being able to send your kids to college is the biggest blessing. I want to share this blessing with other parents.”

One particular anecdote encapsulates their close relationship: Patrick once called Randi with a message that initially filled her with concern—a familiar feeling for any parent of a college student. However, it turned out that during a game, when asked about his favorite dish his mom made, Patrick admitted on the stadium screen that cooking wasn’t Randi’s forte.
With good humor, Randi suggested that her version of a Chick-fil-A sandwich should have been his answer, jokingly crediting it for his success. This shared family joke about her fast-food culinary ‘expertise’ remains a fond memory between them but also serve as a testament to the role of family support in shaping an individual’s future. As Randi once said, “Being a mother is my favorite thing… Sometimes it’s hard, but it is my favorite thing.”
