Ray was a wonderful Uncle. He always made it a point to have a private conversation with me. I will miss his laughter, smile and jokes.

Dear: Mrs. Kosnik & Family

As a fellow member of Fr. John Schaus Council & the St. John Neumann Assembly, Please accept our deepest Sympathies.
To say Ray was just a member would not be true. Ray was a driving force in the function of the Council. Ray would do whatever needed to be done. He supported, participated and was a hard worker for the organization. "He was a perfect example of what a member of the KofC should be."
Peace be with you and your family, and may God bless you.
