Raymond Penatzer

Ray was one of my dearest friends. Words cannot describe the sadness in my heart at losing one of the most unique individuals I have ever encountered. At times an enigma, Ray made every day, every minute spent with him entertaining and interesting. I lost more than just a friend in Ray, I lost a part of my heart. He would probably laugh reading this, his typical sly chuckle, and I will sorely miss sharing laughs with him.
Rest easy my friend.

We are so very sorry for your loss! Ray was a very kind, generous man who we also got to know as vendors at the Marketplace. Prayers for all of his loved ones who are left behind.

So sorry to hear of Ray's passing. May God give you peace.

I will truly miss Ray's always smiling face and good nature !!!
This is such a tragedy. He will be greatly missed by all !!!

Our family went to Hartville today to get some pepperoni rolls, and we were told of the news. We didn't really know you but our family will miss seeing you and your friendly smile. So so sorry to Ray's family and friends. You will be missed by more than you know.

Even though I only knew Ray for a few month, in that time I saw him grow in his curiosity about the bible and the Lord. He enjoyed coming to our church and singing and learning about the bible and Jesus! I pray his is singing with the Lord today!

I can't say that I was super close to Ray, having met him through pinball league . But he was kind enough to invite me to his house a few times to play pinball and hang out. I always appreciated his cool attitude and his entrepreneurial drive to carve out his own path in life. I can only aspire to have that same attitude.

You'll be missed Ray. My thoughts are with his family & friends.

I was very sorry to hear of Ray's death. He was a very welcome addition to our Sunday School class and fellowship at Community Church of Portage Lakes. He will be missed.

Diane ,
