My sympathy to the family of Ray. I worked at Buckeye Forge when he was president and he ran a really tight ship, and a very successful one. I will remember him and your family in my prayers.

Dear Dolores, Susan and Rick,
How sorry we were to hear that Ray had passed away. I have such great memories of time spent at your home on Schaaf Rd. when we were kids. Know that all of you are in our hearts as you mourn the loss of husband, dad and grandpa. Much love,

Janine and I send our condolences to the Amari family. The loss of Mr Amari caused me to warmly reflect on the times our families spent together. The few times we have seen each other in recent years, I found Mr Amari as sincere and engaging as he always was.

Dear Mrs. Amari and Family -
We are so sorry to hear of the passing of Mr. Amari. He was not only a life long friend to my parents, but he also became a dear friend to us. We looked forward to visiting him at the yearly "class reunions" where he took the time to talk with all of us. He will be missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this difficult time.

Love, Lorraine (Chase), Wayne, Kate and Hannah Hlavin
