Hi Lyn. Still remembering Ray with love and a smile. The time is getting closer when he will be back. What a happy day that will be for so many! Love you much and miss you.

Lyn and family, so sorry to hear Ray is no longer with you. The things that I remember most about him are his gentleness, his wry smile, and his dedication to you and to Jehovah. Even though it doesn't help much right now, may the good memories of this truly good man and the resurrection hope hold you up until you hear his voice and see his beloved face again - with all the problems of this system a thing of the past. Love you, Barb and Ray.

So sorry to hear of the passing of Ray. We worked together for many years. There are wonderful memories of his quick wit, compassion, and attention to detail on the job. He always spoke so highly of his family. My sympathy to all of you.
