Ray a hardworking good charitable man with his heart. He enjoyed the sport of baseball. He coached in the local Little League and did what he could to help. Was a productive citizen of the community and a great father to his Daughter and Son. Was great to share a conversation with on the street. He had a great personality and always shared a laugh when we spoke. Godspeed my friend in your journey to peace.
