- Randy Steele September 13, 1961 - May 22, 2009. It's hard to capture a life in a few sentences, especially one that was lived as large as Randy's but here are a few highlights. In 1995 Randy started working at CH Television and went on to become one of the viewer's favourite reporters covering issues at Hamilton city hall and eventually producing his own segment "Steele's Town". In 2001 Randy was diagnosed with throat cancer. From 2003-2009 the cancer returned unrelentingly but with just as much force he fought back. In 2004, at the suggestion of a friend, Randy took up photography--it was the moment he went from being in front of a camera to being behind one. Randy took over 12,000 photos between 2004 and 2009. His love for his family, the cottage in Lurgan Beach, Kincardine, and the city of Hamilton are all captured with his passionate and artistic eye. Shannon, Carly, Keltie, Randi and I are very proud of Randy's photos and have chosen to share more of them with you. Enjoy! Maggie Steele February 2011.

I see ole windmill's got his hand in the air, is that the start of the wind up? Does he get that ole arm spinning like a crazy windmill? He looks like a strange cat...why do I picture him screaming and banging on his guitar like a maniac?
Does the Windmill set his guitar on fire like Jimmy Hendrix?
can the windmill play his guitar with his teeth? How about behind his back? or over his head?
Does the windmill hop around like Chuck Berry? Just what is it about the windmill that makes him so dog gone special?
What a surprise it was to look at your blog after quite a length of time and end up seeing 2 pictures of friends. The "windmill" Randy Hill and in the background of the 2 pics is his brother Rocky. I am surprised that they are playing electric guitars though since their background is bluegrass music. Oh well...whatever floats your boat.
