Maureen, Mo, Tom and family: I am sure the loss of such an incredible figurehead in your family will create a void. However, Ray would want you to remember his passion, humor and sense of right and wrong and keep living life to the fullest just like he did. He made an impression on everyone he met and we were blessed to have known him. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Love, Don, Robin, Morgan & Mike Wofford
