Raymond M. "Mike" Washington

Hey Granddad-

Man, I miss you so very much. I sometimes stop and think about you and the many things we use to do together. I think of how crasy you were sometimes when it came down to Mache',Cayla and I. I'll try my best to make you happy. I am so happy that you got the chance to see me come out of high school and go to college....i just wish you would have stayed alittle bit longer. I'll see you one day, I look forward to that big smile and open arms that I know awaits me....

My Daddy,
These last few weeks have been really hard for me. Living without you will be the hardest thing I will have to do and the truth is I don't want to. Your friendship meant so much to me because it was accompanied with your parenthood and for that I'm forever greatful. Thank you so much for all the unconditional love, you made me smile, made me well when I was sick and I love and thank you. I promised to allow you to live both through me and my children, they will be hard shoes...

Michelle,
May Gods love surround you, comfort you and guide you.
With my deepest sympathy for the loss of your Dad.

Love ya,
Z and Family

Raymond, you will be missed, I miss your humor and luaghter and just seeing you everyday, shooting the breeze with you.
