Randy Foye finding his mom ... and peace

Ian Thomsen’s feature on Randy Foye is both heartbreaking and heartwarming, a story about how Foye lost his mother as a child, found her ... and realized what else he had found in his life’s journey.

The story, like most of Foye’s stories begins in Newark, his hometown, where two years after his father died in a motorcycle crash, Foye’s mother disappeared. He was 5.

Thomsen writes...

"I didn’t know what was going on until I was 9 or 10,’’ says Foye. He remembers being told, in the beginning, that she was on vacation.
