Jean, Ronnie and Becky,

Thank you all for your friendship all of these years. Ray was one of my best and closest friends and I will miss him a lot.

Promise that you all will keep in touch with Dot and me in the future and I will do the same.

There are so many good memories of you and Ray that I am at a lost for words now. I will always keep Ray in my prayers and hope that God is kind to him now.
