At age 21, when I left Pittsburgh to start my married life in Philadelphia, my first job was as Ray´s secretary. He was an associate and boy did I learn a
lot. It served me well in life and I have often thought of his kind words of wisdom.

I believe this was the Ray Cullen who was so helpful to me at the Naval Air Development Center and also was a writing mentor. He was a really good man! Sounds as if he had a good life, too. I'm happy for him. Jim Murphy

Ray drove me on my first date with my wife to be Mary Ann Iaquinto. He was a nice guy who made something of his life...RIP Prepper
