Uncle Ray was a character and I remember fondly summers when the March family came home to PEI. Ray was always smiling, or laughing and telling stories - suntanned and usually dressed in those plaid shorts, either ready to go golfing or coming home from golfing. I cannot imagine how difficult a time this is for you and I extend my deepest sympathy. May you find peace and love in this time of sadness.
Love,
Nancy

I remember when Auntie Pris and Uncle Ray used to come home to PEI when I was young and it was always so exciting! He always made me feel so special.
Please know that I am thinking of you at this difficult time and my sympathies are with you all. Love,
Carolyn & Eric & Bryce
