Raymond P. McGraw

I can't believe that Ray is no longer with us! The world is a much poorer place without his brilliance.

I am so sorry to know that Ray is gone for good. I will miss him and always remember how much he inspired me to learn about things that I never knew about and made me more free in my thinking. He broadened my horizons to the limits of my imagination.

Walking around the LCCC campus is just not the same. Miss hearing his voice in the hallways and knowing exactly where he is at in the lecture. Truly a privilege to have known this man; words cannot adequately describe how tremendous he really was.

I do not know how I missed seeing this obituary. Ray McGraw was an absolute legend at LCCC and I had the privilege of being a student in two of his philosophy classes during two very different periods in my life. I will miss seeing him walking his dog up on Riverside Drive in Wilkes Barre. Thank you Ray for teaching your students how to look at life from a different and insightful perspective. Godspeed sir.

Maria, I was so saddened to hear about Ray's passing. I'll always remember our conversations on Tuesday nights in the LCCC Library. Not only one of the great Steeler's fan, but one of the best guys!

To Mr. McGraw's family and friends,
I wish to extend my deepest sympathy to you in your loss. I pray you will take comfort in knowing that his impact on the lives of his students is immeasurable. He was one of the finest educators I have ever encountered in my very long career as both teacher and student. My life, and the lives of my children who also were his students, have been enriched by having met him. I am deeply saddened that I didn't have the opportunity to know him better. I hope...

MARIE & FAMILY: I met 'Pookie' in 10th grade when we connected re our Homing Pigeon interests. He was impressive & quick witted & generous! God Bless you w. Solace over the years.

LCCC has lost not only a great Professor but a wonderful and kind human being and the biggest Steelers fan Pittsburgh ever knew. You will be missed by all Ray, my condolences to family. HPE & ExSci Dept. LCCC
