Amelia, whenever I saw you and Raymond out shopping together it made me smile. You were such a great sister and friend to him. Raymond had such a great personality and I enjoyed holding conversations with him and of course getting those big hug. This is an understatement but "He will truly be missed by all who knew him". (205) 515-2322 Please call and lets get together!

Amelia you have done a fantastic job in caring for your sweet and oh so kind brother Raymond. I know your mom and dad smiled upon you in taking care of their baby and welcomed him home with open arms. Raymond and I go back a long way as far back as Lewis Elementary School. Cynthia told me to let you know that she is heart broken by his demise, they had a special bond that no one knew except them. God is truly a good God and he has never made a mistake even if we don't understand. Stay...

Dear Amelia,
My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family.We have lost a great guy in your brother Ray. Whenever I would see you all out at the Downtown YMCA or Railroad Park, Ray was going to always give me a big smile and a hug. Thank you for your care for him and making sure he lacked for nothing. When I see you, you will have to keep up the smiles and hugs for Ray. With Deep thankfulness and celebrating the life or Ray.

Amelia,
My deepest and heartfelt sympathy goes out to you today as you take that final walk with Ray.
I commend you on a job well done. After your mom's death you stepped up and took over as caregiver for Ray, never missing a beat. I know you not only lost your brother, but your best friend. Ray never meet a stranger with that smile as wide as the Mississippi and a heart as big as Texas. Ray was always the life of the party, loving his music and dancing the night away. I can...

I thank God for you, how God gave you strength , patience and love to care for your brother. I am unable to attend the funeral, but I have been looking at the C. W. Hayes High School reunion pictures, Raymond enjoyed life, remembering the YMCA work outs, he will be missed, but God needed him to join your mother and my father in heaven, weeping may endure for a night, but God even in the midst of your loss will allow joy to come to you and be with you, keep the good times in your heart and...
