You have taught me so much over those years that Is so unconditional and I have always remembered that and will continue to always . When there was help needed you were always there and problems were resolved so quickly. That defines pure selflessness. Randy always a leader and a massive asset to Russ's Overhead Doors and those who were around him.
I love you Randy and miss you very much
your friend always Justin Draper

To the Cherry family,
I am so very sorry for your loss. I'm from a Tyhee family, and my parents and Randy's parents were in the same ward and good friends. We always cherished the Cherry family. May you have peace and understanding in this new portion of your lives.

The death of a loved one is so devastating and not always easy to get through alone. I found Phillipians 4:6-7 helps because we're encouraged to turn to God in prayer and He will give you peace and understanding as you endure this difficult time.
