Sorry to hear about your loss and I feel deeply for all of you. The photos show that he lived a full life while on this earth.

To celebrate a fellow hot-rodder's passing, I did a smokey burn out in my hot rod Z28 today.

My deepest sympathy and condolences to Ron and the family, I had the pleasure of working with Ray in the late 80’s. He was always kind, funny, and hardworking; he provided lots of wisdom to me as a young chief steward of the Machinists Union. Ray was an all-around good person who loved his family. My prayers are with the family during this time.

Condolences and prayers to Rays Family. I worked with Ray at Hughes A/C Co for years before Raytheon came in. GM and GD were there also. They were the best times anyone could ever have at that time. Sheet metal workers are very needed and we will miss Ray. Thank you my friend.
