Lois- Allen and I will miss Ray's bright smile. We so enjoyed the years we had with him, especially the holidays we shared. How he loved the desserts!! We are glad he is free and at peace.
We also know how much you loved him and how devoted you were to each other. You can find comfort in knowing that his greatest joy was in being married to you.
Blessings and sympathy,
Suzie
