    Minnie, I know I always speak of the time so many years ago when you and Randy babysat us as kids. You were both on sitting in the recliner. You on Randy's lap. Both of you trying to steal a few innocent kisses while Roger and I peeked around corners being little torments. The image of both of you sitting there like that is forever etched in my heart. Just two teenagers in love ❤❤.. I wish you had had a hundred more years together...My heart is hurting for you, Chasity and Shawn and the entire family. Love, Patricia XO
