I am so glad I got to know Ray even if it was for a short time. I remember when he and Dianne met and then eventually married. I was so happy they found each other. Ray was such a great example of what a true Christian is and he obviously loved Dianne very much. Hold on to the memories and the knowledge that you will be united again in God's house. Peace be with you all.

Ray was an amazing man and a wonderful husband and son. I am so lucky to be able to call him my brother in law. He touched so many lives here and made such a difference in this world. His witness in health and then through his cancer journey's were a testament to others. In him, his actions and his love for others you saw a true disciple of Christ a refection of Jesus.
