Randy,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I didn't find out about Raelynn's passing until after the viewing and I will be working during the funeral, but I wanted to say that my thoughts and prayers are with you and it was always a pleasure serving you in the pharmacy at Ammon. I will also always remember visiting with you and Raelynn in my ward in Shelley some time ago.
