Kathi and Family,
Our heartfelt sorrow goes out to you all. I've reflected in appreciation, many fond memories these past days.
Starting with the 'rabbit hunts' I'd co-pilot with my dad 'Tiger'. Those were a lot of fun. Dad being Dad and all, If we won the hunt, we would toast together with a small sip of his beer. Well, I'm sure I did anyway. And to the many weekend breaks I tagged along with. Sometimes no other kids would show, So I was >forced
Well best I mention...

Kathi,
Neighbors of Mom and Dad's for 40 years. (Delores and Pat Bryner)
We were sorry to hear of Ray's passing but are sure he's playing tricks and telling jokes to the angels by now - he will be very happy there. Unfortunately, Mom is now in Hospice care now and Dad isn't well enough to attend the Memorial but we send our prayers that you have peace in your heart and comfort in friends and family.
Much Love,
The Bryners

Ray has been my neighbor since I moved into the neighborhood in 1972. I have to say that he and Kathi are the best and I will miss Ray and his sense of humor very much. I can't remember a time that I saw Ray that he didn't have some humorous quip to share with me. Ray, I will always think of you when I put up my Chrismas lights and put out my "Christmas goats"! Kathi, I'm here for you...
