With deepest sympathies - Sorry to hear about your lost. It seems just yesterday when we lost Dean. I think about him often and how much fun we had at the 49er game with Ray , Adell and Dean. You're in our thoughts and prayers.

To the Family,
Ray has been a good friend since our days at Cal Poly. Ray bought me lunch in Sacramento just a couple of years ago. While at school we drove together to a Scarab convention in Nebraska; we had a wonderful trip.
