Louise and Family. . . .
My thoughts and prayers are with your family with Raymon's passing. I am so greatful that I got to know Raymon as he worked out at the Eastside YMCA. I loved hearing the stories he would share and the love he had for you Louise and his family. God brought another angel to heaven when he called Raymon up. My prayers are with you all.
