"Sweet Pickles My Sister Loved to take care of Randall On Easter everyone thought he couldn't find the easter eggs so she would blow up balloons for him and put them around the rooms and he would find them and Laugh as only he could. On 4th of July he would stand on the porch and She would tell him what color the fireworks were. They also would watch movies while Loretta would tell him everything that was going on,he really liked that.. He also loved her Dog Lightin called him his and the dog would sit with him and lick his hand and when Loretta would play like she would hit Randall the dog would take up for him. It was too funny and Made Randall laugh so hard. He would ask me to bring him Sweet Pickles He loved them so very much, He really could not have them so I would bring him Dill ones and he was fine with that but would always ask for Sweet Pickles before we left that day. You Will Be Missed our Sweet Sweet Man,,, Randall Elrod . "

"So sorry to hear about Randall's passing. I was always very fond of him. He came to work for my Daddy when I was a young girl. He was very cool to me, I started calling him "Hippy" then and always did even when I grew older. Thankful that he no longer suffers from the things that this world put him through! Go rest high Hippie!"
