Nancy, very sorry to hear of Rays passing. I forwarded the information to other of his shipmates from the Eddy Mac.
Ray was a gentle soul and although we weren't close in distance, whenever we met up, it was like we had never been apart.

I'm so sorry to hear about Ray. Ray was a great guy and we had some fun conversations at the last class reunion. He will be sorely missed. RIP, Ray, may you have Calm Seas and Following Winds.

Nancy and Family, Our thoughts and prayers go out to each of you at this time of need... I'm thankful I had the chance to meet Ray just days before. He seemed like one hell of a great guy. I only wished I had a chance to know him longer. God Speed Ray
