Remembering my cousin Ray today and every day especially during this time when the Chicago White Sox are at the ballpark. The lovely days of summer when Ray enjoyed the games with his sweet children and grandchildren. Miss you cousin.

As I see my cousin Rays family grow and prosper I find myself thinking of him often. They are all happy and fulfilled. I miss my cousin. Blessings on his family. Much love, your favorite and (only) girl cousin, Nancy

Marilyn, Laura, Sheryl, Melanie and Family
