Mary and family, Please accept our sincere sympathy on the passing of your beloved Ray. Mary often said he was a wonderful boss to work for. I fondly remember his quick wit, and humor. The world has been enriched by his love and dedication to education! While he may not be with you in person any longer, I am certain his love and spirit remain by your side always! God bless all of you. Love, Jim, Mary & Chris Reich

My heartfelt symphony to the Pechous family. Ray was my boss while he was principal at St Paul School in Davenport. Of all the jobs I have had in my 83 years, Ray was my favorite boss. He was kind, understanding, caring and fun! But, I prayed I would always do right because if I didn´t, oh that voice! I can say that he was one who lived what he believed, in work, play and his love for Mary and his children. Heaven has opened wide to welcome this beautiful, loving and fun gentle man. Go in...
