March 27, 2017 at 3:00 pmKaren and I moved back to Missouri in 2002 where we purchased a farm in the beautiful Southwest Missouri Ozarks. Randy and Claudine were the first to welcome us to the close knit community and invited us to attend their Church, Garrison Baptist Church. Randy and Claudine were close friends if not family and helped us in many ways. Claudine and Randy enjoyed their NASCAR racing. Claudine and Karen enjoyed quilting among many other things. We Love them very much and our prayers go out to Randy and the Family. GOD Bless.
