I worked with Ray and his brother Joe years ago, too many to count. These men were salt of the earth kind of guys. Industrious, honest, soft spoken and, to this day, I have never met two nicer people. Rest in peace Ray.

So many great memories of Uncle Raymee through the years, family gatherings and especially on the boat.
