We send our deepest sympathy to each and every one of you. Family was everything to Ray and anyone that was ever around Ray when he was surrounded by his family knew that. He had a special sparkle in his eyes when he was with his family. He knew just how special they were. Ray loved being a big part of his grandchildren’s lives as much as his grandchildren loved having him be. How wonderful for all you to be able to look back on the memories and know that he shared so much of himself with all of you. You will want to fill that void he leaves with all those treasured moments. He would want it that way.

Our love to all of you,
Bruce and Jerene
