Ronald Edes wrote a sympathy message

“I've been a friend of Jan and Rayburn Lanier since 1966, while serving as a Navy medic with the 6th Marines at Camp Lejeune. One of my Navy buddies introduced me to the Lanier family and I visited their home several times, enjoying their southern hospitality. We never met again in person, but when my enlistment ended in 1967, we managed to stay in touch by telephone and correspondence for nearly 60 years. I will always remember and treasure our long-distance relationship.”
