I just found out about Ray's passing. We went to high school together, and Ray was such a fun guy to hang out with. I have many fond memories of Ray. He will be missed at our reunion. My sympathies to his family and friends.

Ray was a good man and we are going to really miss him and his silly ways, He was so much fun to have around cause you never knew what was going to come out of his mouth. As long as we have memories we will alway have Ray with us. You will be truly missed and you will always be loved.

I'm so sad to hear about Ray and my thoughts and prays go out to his family. He was a terrific guy and will always remembered that way. I've known Ray since I was a teenager and still enjoyed talking about the old days when I would see him @ the Food Lion near his house.
