Obituary - William Rand Schuft

Obituary - William Rand Schuft

Rand Schuft passed away peacefully at his home on June 23, 2025. He was born in Belle Fourche, SD, to William and Nedra Schuft on March 25, 1943. Rand pursued a law enforcement career starting in Yankton, SD, then moved to work for the Rapid City Police Department. He moved to Nevada and continued his law enforcement career with the Fallon Police Department, then he was hired by the state. He retired from a 30-year career in law enforcement in Nevada, but retirement was short lived as he was appointed Municipal Court Judge in Ely, Nev. He spent four years as judge, then decided to move back to his roots in South Dakota. 

Rand was very active in the Elks Lodge and was a sitting member of the board of trustees for Yankton College for many years, along with serving on the board for The Ranch at Black Gap development. 

He is survived by his wife of 53 years; children, grandchildren, one great grandchild and two brothers. A celebration of Rand’s life will be held at a later date. Condolences may be sent to the family through www.kirkfuneralhome.com.

C Comment author: Carl C. HagenComment text: What are MFNs and PBMs ?? ............................ From the editor: This is a very good question and we apologize for not catching that wasn't in there. We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITORComment author: Debra J RidenourComment text: So sorry for your loss.
