The tremendous sadness I feel at having just learned of Rayetta's passing is immeasurable. She was always a ray of sunshine on the darkest of days. I was looking to reach out to her, only to discover that she had passed. It's 3 years past, nearly 4, but I want to say to anyone reading this message that Rayetta was a true angel in my eyes. I know she's resting peacefully and I hope her family has somehow found peace in her departure.

I was so saddened to hear about Ray. I loved when we worked together and I missed her after I left. I didn't realize the ugly monster cancer had come back so badly. It hurts me so. She had such a great spirit. Another wonderful angel is watching us now. Love and peace to Rayetta and family from Sandra Copman
