To Caroline, Logan and Nanny, we were deeply saddened to hear of Papa's death. We know what a constant source of strength and stability he was in your lives and how much he will be missed by you. He was a very special person to our daughter Jami as well. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

To the Rayburn Family,

I was saddened to hear of the death of Howard Rayburn. As a retired military person myself, I appreciate the service he performed to his country.
