Not sure what to say?

Sure miss his humor!! Always made light of things.

My sincere condolences to the family of Raymond Bechtel. From his obituary, it sounds like he was blessed with a life he loved until the very end. I remember Raymond fondly from our days in Pottsgrove schools.

To Family, My husband Jim worked together with Ray at Sanders & Thomas & said he was an excellent draftsman & very pleasant to work with. I met Ray at our home in N. Coventry doing his job as an EMT with Goodwill ambulance, he was very courteous & gentle with his treatment with me. We moved to Pottsgrove several years ago & were delighted Ray had become the Chief of Police here, well earned. Ray was always a gentleman & also a gentle-man!
Gone, but never forgotten. Our sympathy & prayers...

Jan,

What a shock to hear about Butch! Our condolences.
Sincerely, Chet and Nancy

Ray AKA Butch Bechtel was my Superman at age 8.
He passed as a superman to many. My prayers are with his family and friends at this time. His fight against cancer was heroic, but God toke him home to rest. Marie Nettles

So sad to lose such a wonderful person.He touched many,many people, He wore his heart on his sleeve,and yet he was to the point and always professional.He was the kind of guy you could talk to for hours,and walk away with total admiration of his accomplishments.You will be sadly missed my dear friend.My thoughts and prayers go out to your family.

I never had the pleasure of meeting Justyns Grandpop but I feel like I knew him through his grandsons stories. He was a great man who lead by example. Jan, you were and you still are blessed with such a loving family and host of friends. God bless you all. Now fly away Ray to the stars and beyond.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. God Bless you and keep you. Rick, Sydne, and Ruth Romig
