Not sure what to say?

I supported Ray in the early 1990s when he was an engineer. I would make copies for him on 11 by 17 paper with big font because he had difficulty reading the normal size of fonts then. He was a quiet man with a great work ethic. I remember his cubicle -- he was surrounded by so much paperwork. He was a great man.

I did testing for Ray around 35 years ago. He was a delight to work with and a really sharp, innovative guy.

Ray was a remarkable human being and will be sorely missed by his lovely family and his many friends. It has been a true honor to know him and to know his equally wonderful wife, Marge. They were our most terrific neighbors for many years and were role models for my parenting, providing an always-welcoming home full of family fun to our son, Stephen. I am forever grateful...

Mr. Palmer is a very kind, calm, content man. He was genuinely interested in people. He was an inventor, smart guy. It is no wonder he and Marge raised 9 wonderful, successful, well rounded children. I am the neighbor kiddo who spent a lot of good times at the Palmer home: many, many fond memories. Thank you Ray. I am so happy to know you, call you friend.

Ray was an accomplished man and a warm, wonderful friend. We have been fortunate to have known him and Marge for over fifty years. Hate to see him leave us. ❤
