I only met you a few times but know you were a good man. You will be greatly missed by many and you left everyone way too soon.

So sorry for your loss. Ray was always so good to me at Beachwood. He would drop everything to help me with whatever I needed. For years I would stay late and he'd always point to his watch with his eyebrows raised and a little smirk on his face or tell me I needed to get home. Recently he touched the life of my four year old who keeps talking about how he'll miss Mr. Ray. God Bless!

I worked with Ray at Beachwood Elementary for several years and I was so sad to hear of his passing. He was always so kind and thoughtful and we loved sharing stories about Hoboken and Jersey City. He will be missed.
