Not sure what to say?

So very sorry to hear this. Ray and my husband, Richard were good friends for many years through the Kiwanis Club and the U.S. Army Reserves. Ray visited our home and helped us with my mother's dementia. I hope Ricard and Ray meet in heaven.

I was so very sorry to hear of Ray's passing. My mother bought her organ from him many
years back and bought me my guitar from
him too! We both took lessons from him.
He will be sadly missed. Ray was a lovely
man.
I will be keeping your family in my
thoughts and my prayers during this time.

Ray it was great with you our friends and classmates in Cuba, I was always gonna come visit but family, new friends and getting a tad old put a damper on that. I will never forget our little copse of woods going to hidden valley along the railroad tracks You I and shierly sharing our first sneaked ciggarettes. You were a special loyal buddy I always have missed you and willl continue. Now even Shirly is gone our little circle of friends constantly grows smaller we will all see each other...

Mr. Watson was one of my favorite teachers. I visited him in Batavia for some hypnosis, he was the best! He always had a great sense of humor. He even laughed when I told him we all called him "Whip". A great guy that will be greatly missed!! May the memories sustain his family until they see him again. Thinking of you all in this difficult time. Sincerely, Peggy (Winans)) Kuras

Sorry to hear about Ray. I was in youth fellowship with him at the Cuba Baptist Church. He made our meetings lots of fun during the high school years. He will be greatly missed by many people

Such a terrific friend. I will always remember Ray's chuckle and that twinkle in his eye.

I had Mr. Watson, my senior year at Wellsville High, and he left quite an impression on me at the time and for many years afterwards! I always wanted to be able to tell him, how long it took me to figure out something, that he had said in class.... and I regret that I didn't get that chance! I had moved away from Wellsville for many years, and recently moved back to the area. One day, while in class, he made a statement, saying, "You know how when hair clogs up a drain....nothing goes through...
