Obituary
Send FlowersAs a medic, Ray M. Fuhrmann II probably saved more lives in Iraq over the past three years than most emergency room doctors. "Ray saved everybody _ Iraqis, soldiers, anybody. He didn't care," said his wife, Tylea. "He even tried to go to the Iraqi hospitals to help people who were wounded." Fuhrmann, 28, of Novato, Calif., was killed by a roadside bomb Aug. 18 in Samarra. He was assigned to Fort Stewart and was on his second tour of Iraq. Fuhrmann, who grew up in Hawaii, attended community colleges in Sonoma and Alameda counties. He married his high school sweetheart, enlisted and shipped out for Iraq, all in 2002. "He was a wonderful person. He was an asset to the community and to the country, and they are the ones who will be losers, really," said his grandfather, Ray Fuhrmann. The younger Fuhrmann enjoyed martial arts and studied aikido in Japan. Inspired by his tours in Iraq, he hoped to go to medical school and become a trauma surgeon when he got out. "When I spent time with him, I was very introverted," said half-brother Tyler Gold. "He kind of helped me get out of that."

10 years since you passed, and 14 years since I last saw you, yet your face and your voice are just as fresh and alive. I only knew the Ray that was trying to find himself while working as a painter in Novato in the Spring of 2001. We shared so many laughs and really cool moments going to Johnson's beach, Six Flags Vallejo, Petaluma, hiking around Marin/Sonoma, drinking lost of beer and some cheap wine. Man, I remember giving you a copy of one of my favorite books (The Pilgrimage) for a...

This April was the 10-year anniversary of the fall of Baghdad...you were there with me then, and I wish I could have called you to share stories about that frightening period that has now become fondly remembered due to the passage of time and the human tendency to forget the bad things...today is memorial day; for me it will always be 'Ray Day'. We love you, we miss you.
