I was very saddened to learn of the passing of my high school friend. Randy was a good friend, and although we are separated by years and miles, I always considered him a good friend. I so much wish I could be there for his services and the wake on Friday, but I am just not able to be there. I want to offer my sincerest condolences to the family. Donnie, Debbie and Joyce I love you all and you have all of my love and prayers during this time.
