I have been typing some Goetsch/Lapp family history put together by my uncle Francis Goetsch which included some great information from Ray. I have enjoyed the family stories so much I thought I would try and call Ray with some questions - and found his obituary while looking for his phone number. I am sorry to hear that he is gone, and send my condolences to his family.

Dear Mrs. Fischer:

Chris,

We are so sorry to hear of Ray's passing. As we both know, he was a very special person with a warm hearth for everyone. He was a person I always admired and found it a privilege to work for.

I am so greatful for the good times we shared together, as his friendship meant a great deal to me.

Our love and prayers to you and your family.
