Joyce and Family, Please accept my deepest sympathy on Ray's passing. I recently moved back to the Myrtle Meach area. If you can remember, I rented an apartment from the both of you when you managed the Lazy G. I was stationed at Myrtle Beach AFB 1981-1985. Id just like to tell you how much i enjoyed living there and interacting with your family.I considered your family my family. Threw the years i often wondered how everyone was. I do travel thru Pageland often. Id like to stop by and say hello. Please accept my sympathies. Bill Schwartz

Having just moved to Maryland earlier this month I was shocked this morning to discover that Ray had passed away. He was a dear friend who I admired greatly for his service to the Town of Pageland and his love of family. My prayers and thoughts go out to his family and his many other friends. God bless you Ray.
