You will be missed very much Randy. Although we are glad your suffering is over, we are sad that you won't be around to share in our lives going forward (like sneaking "pea pods" in the trailer). We know you will always be there, watching over us. We will do our best to help Kim and the boys when ever they need us. God Bless.
