Raymond A. Engblom

Raymond A. Engblom, 54 years of Garnet Valley, PA formerly of Clarksboro, NJ, suddenly on January 25, 2012 Legacy Ray dedicated his life to others. He proudly served our country for four years in the US Army and upon his honorable discharge, Ray earned his Associate degree from Camden County College and worked in the Laser Optics industry for 10 years. He then earned his Bachelor Degree from San Jose State University before being commissioned with the US Coast Guard, which he retired from after 16 years and received the Meritorious Service Medal. Through the Coast Guard, he later earned his Master's Degree in Information Technology through Drexel University. Ray was always looking out for others before himself and was readily available to offer a helping hand to those in need. As a boy, Ray enjoyed fishing with his brothers, but his passion beyond those he loved was for the Great American Pastime: Baseball. Ray eagerly watched the Phillies and cheered them on to victory, and passed on his athletic perseverance and diligence to his son John.
