Not sure what to say?

It has been six long years since Ray left me and family. I think of him every day, such a loving person. Life is so empty without him. I look forward to the day we will meet again, I love you !

It has been 3 years since Ray went home to the LORD's house. Ray was a caring, loving man. We are so Blessed to have had him in our lives for the short time we did. { 20 years) As he said many times, these were the best years of his life. He was very close to our Grandson, Cole {,and Daughter Kimberlee) taking Cole every where he went. Until we meet again, We love you and all the memories we have. GOD BLESS

It has been two long years since Ray left us, his wife of 18 years, Jeanne, His step daughter Kimberlee, grand sons, Cole. Trent and Brit. We have such fond memories of just spending time as a loving family. Traveling in our motorhome to various places; remembering the happy times we all shared, just being together. Ray expressed many times his last years were his happiest years. We are so Blessed to have had Ray in our lives for the rest of his life.

We enjoyed many trips all over the United States and Canada in our new motorhome. What beautiful memories our daughter, Kim and the three grandsons have to cherish!

Kimberlee, Brit, Trent, Cole and I, your wife of 17 years, Jeanne. We miss you terribly. We want to thank Hospice for the wonderful care given to Ray in his final days with us. We love you!
