Raymond J. Novotny

Dear Mrs.Novot, Tim, Mary Ellen, Kevin and all extended family and friends. Kelli, Theresa and Maureen and myself pray for your peace of mind during this tough time. It was great to hear God gave you guys an incredible gift of time, after the diagnosis, to enjoy each other's love for one another with trips and creating "special" memories to keep in your heart! God speed Mr. Novot!!

Remember

Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you plann'd:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

To Tim and the rest of the Novotny family,

My deepest sympathies and condolences during this most difficult time. I know the saddness that you are feeling, however know that your life has been enriched and blessed from Ray. May a part of him be with you every day.

My best to you and your family always.

I only know Ray via his son Tim and if that man is anything like his son he was a Great Man. I know he loved the race track, the horses and the excitement. May he enjoy it even more from now on.
