Ray Smith was so kind to my father, John Carrigg. Ray, his wife, and daughter came to my Dad's 71st birthday/tennis party over at the MIT Bubble. I have a photo of this on our dining room piano. Ray worked for Poloroid Camera Company. He gave an instamatic camera to my Dad. My sister, Kathy Butler, told me of Ray's passing. To Ray's family and friends, I am sorry for your loss of him. He was truly a generous soul.
