It is with much sadness that we express our sympathy to all who knew and loved Ray. He touched and enriched many lives in his 91 years. I am personally grateful and proud to have called him "Dad". Granddaddy always showed up early on X-mas day, before the children were even up, with a hot thermos of coffee and his special eggnog. We never needed to worry about batteries for a toy as he always had some in his hardware store, his car trunk! I am honored to have been a part of his life and will share those memories with the generations that carry on.
