    I have missed Randall since he left Caledonia. We would chat most everyday. He would always bring a smile to your face with a song and a dance or a great story. I would talk to Randall about his younger years and he relayed many old memories. His favourite being how he was born in a snow storm. May he Rest In Peace and meet his love Catherine once again.
