Randy and Family
I went to Wooster School with the Mack children and had such sweet memories of Sharon and Valerie. We all looked up to their big sister, Bonnie. Then in 1967 while teaching at Dr. Burns, Bonnie was an excellent teacher and a helpful co-worker. I remember when you started to school. Bonnie was a good mother. So sorry for your loss.
Randy, our thoughts and are prayers are with you and your family my brother. All three of the Gray’s had your mother for 1st grade or 2nd grade at Dr. Burns Elementary School. I had her for 1st grade and she was and has been one of my favorite teachers. I saw her a few years ago in Greenbier and it was so nice to get caught up. I fine teacher!! A fine person!!! She will definitely be missed!
Take care Randy. MG
I am sending my love and prayers today.
From Randy's co-workers, our best wishes for comfort during this time.
McCain employees and friends.
