I am so sorry to hear this. He was my friend and supervisor at Whiteman AFB,Mo where he was Squadron Commander of the 351st Services Sq. Hubby also worked part time at Whiteman NCO Club as night time manager. He hired me and on my first day on the job he asked where I was from when I told him Crestview He and I were both surprised. What a wonderful man he was and great boss and leader. Again so sorry for your loss of a great man, husband and father.

Linda, when Kim and I came back from the states, after our wedding, Ray helped us throw a great party. I remember you and Ray, like the rest of us dancing up a storm. We had the time of our life and Ray was a big part of that. Ray's time on the field and side lines will be with me foever. God bless you.

I know Ray will be missed everyday, but always remember the GREAT times we all had with Ray over the years. Some of the best years of my life was spent with your whole family in Germany, and then again in Derby. When I think back into the past I thank God for putting us together in a little town called Bitburg. I played football with Ray, he was my Coach, but first he was a great friend. He will be missed!!!

A.Linda, Lara & Scott ~ What a beautiful video tribute to Uncle Ray; I have played it many times & laughed and cried and smiled. It made my heart leap to see mom in those reunion pictures w/ Uncle Ray--they are truly reunited in Paradise. Uncle Ray, you have always been my favorite uncle. You made me feel special and strong and self-confidant. I will always remember your zest for life and the fun times spent w/ you and Aunt Linda and the kids, sharing good food, laughs, big bear hugs, boiled peanuts...the beach ~ I love you, Uncle Ray and I'll see you again in Paradise ~ Jenny (aka "slick") Shumate & the boys

Dear Linda and Family, What a shock! I had received notice of another entry on Mrs. D's guest book and read about Ray's passing there. Oh My words can not express our sadness in his passing. Please know we love you and will keep you in our prayers. I am sure Our Lord and your wonderful Mom was there to welcome him home. May Our Lord continue to give you comfort in the days, weeks, months before you.
Always

Aunt Linda, Lara & Scott: We are so thankful we got to be part of your Florida goodbye to Uncle Ray. We will cherish that precious time forever. Uncle Ray, you are the coolest uncle a girl could have! You introduced me to gourmet cooking & your love of life impressed me at a young age. I have such fond memories of North Carolina, Myrtle Beach & Satellite Beach. Say hello to Mom for us ~~ Until we meet in heaven, Tonya & Robert

Linda, we were saddened to hear the passing of Ray. Ray played a major role in the direction of my life. His recommendation to have me attend Southwestern College changed my life forever. The first night I spent in Kansas was at your mother and father's house. Ray's friendship and interest in me affected my career path, which turned out to be very successful. I will forever be grateful to you, Ray and your family and I will miss him dearly.
I was trying to rearrange my schedule to attend the memorial services. However, I could not secure a flight to Wichita. Please accept our condolences. If there is anything we can do, do not hesitate to ask.
I'm sending you a picture of our 1966 football team. It was taken in Frankfurt, Germany.

Linda, please know how much our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Ray touched so many lives and put so many smiles on so many faces. My kids still talk about his wonderful cheese grits and of all our friends, they never forgot who Ray Lee was. Please also know how much we would love to be at the services and so sorry we can't make it. Sometime later on, if you could send us a copy of the services, we would appreciate it.
Love & prayers always,
Pollia
