Nora,
You two were the cutest couple. I know he is looking down lovingly over you from heaven. He was the renaissance man.

My thoughts and prayers are with you, 'aunt' Nora, and all the Ray family, during this time of loss.
I have such fond childhood memories of sharing time with your family. It always seemed to include fishing when 'uncle' gene was involved.
We are traveling out of state and will be unable to attend his memorial service. Please know we will be with you in spirit.
Love and blessings to all.
