Mrs Davis and family,
I am sorry to hear about Ray. I did projects with him when I used to be in the contracting business in Richmond and lived up the street on the corner from you on Homeview Drive. I enjoyed talking to him and doing business with him. My expression of sympathy goes out to you all as you deal with this great loss.

Mrs. Davis, Ray, and Lisa, We are deeply saddened by your loss. There are so many pleasant memories of Mr. Davis as we visited our grandparents, The Johnsons. May God give you strength in this time of sorrow.

Ray was a great guy. He worked with my dad and me on numerous projects and was always there to help.

Dear Audrey and Family,

We were so sad to hear of Ray's passing. We keep many good memeories of our times together. We remain grateful for Ray's generosity and kind heart during our early years in Richmond. We will miss him.

Audrey, I was taken and shocked to hear of Ray's passing. It has been a year or so since I have seen and talked to him at store here in Mechanicsville. He looked and seemed great. His condition must have progressed rapidly for him to leave us so quickly. I will miss him teasing me and calling me "Crook" every time I saw him ,after selling you the home on Homeview as well as the one in Mechanicsville. We will always have the memories even though he has left us. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
