Ann,
I know you do not remember me, but I wanted to send my deepest sympathies. Ray always stayed in touch with my mom, Lillian Philip Sandt. That meant a lot to her. We know he is at peace and with the rest of the family.
Sincerely,
Cousin Keith Sandt

Dear Anna and Family,
My deepest sympathy... I will always retain the many memories of a shared childhood, as a cousin, and the many adventures we shared through the early years when the family gatherings would occur. May your collection of memories be a source of strength to you and your family during the coming weeks and months ahead.
As we celebrate Raymond's life through our recollections may you do the same.
Warmest Regards, Carolyn Pappas (cousin)
