So very very sorry for you loss ....Remembering so many wonderful years shared with the Rabbe family riding horses in area play days each weekend during the summers. Lyndol and Corrine loved their horses. They always greeted you with a smile. Lyndol taught me so much about horses, I will never forget. Lyndol and my Dad, H. A. Sedberry shared many years of friendship, horse stuff and worked at Waco Tribune till retirement. What a legacy. Say Hello to Dad. Lyndol leaves us with very fond memories and a life well lived.....May the Lord greet you with open arms and comfort your family until they meet again.
