Have known a Rahn and Kelly since the early 90´s. Wanda used to watch Whitney when she was young. Rahn used to work for me at Chambersburg Farm Service. Rahn was a real good friend and family man. Real thoughtful and considerate man. He and Kelly have remained friends for a long time. He will be missed!!
