I went to a wedding Saturday in Great Bend. My son’s best friend, Randy Griffitts, is now a husband. It’s so strange. I have known this kid since he was 6 years old. It was very emotional for me, because his family has been like a surrogate family to my son, Jeff. Randy isn’t just a best friend, he’s a brother. As are his real brothers, Scott and Chris.
My son was Randy’s best man and he gave a little speech at the reception. I bawled like a baby. It was one of the most emotional things I have ever been a part of. I can’t imagine what I’m going to be like when Jeff gets married.
I wish Randy and his wife, Adrienne, the very best. He’s one of the best guys out there and his wife is very fortunate.
