Ray was that one of a kind person we were lucky to know. He was a gentle souls who was always there if you needed him. He never expected anything in return. He served from the heart.
Ray always had a smile that warmed you inside. There really are no words that can truly describe him.
We love you Ray. We will all carry you in our hearts.
Rest In Peace. I know that you will watch over each and every one of us.
Your cousin,
Flo
