Your parents are some of the strongest people I´ve ever met in my life and they raise ld one of the strongest men I´ve ever met in my life. Rest in peace young man!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RAY- RAY !!! #33 Forever Loved ~ Never Forgotten
October 23, 2009
I'd like the memory of me to be a happy one. I'd like to leave an afterglow of smiles when life is done. I'd like to leave an echo whispering softly down the ways, of happy times and laughing times and bright and sunny days. I'd like the tears of those who grieve to dry before the sun of happy memories that I leave when life is done.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN RAY!!
July 22, 2009
I think no matter where you stray,
That I shall go with you a way.
Though you may wander sweeter lands,
You will not forget my hands,
Nor yet the way I held my head
Nor the tremulous things I said.
You will still see me, small and white
And smiling, in the secret night,
And feel my arms about you when
The day comes fluttering back again.
I think, no matter where you be,
You'll hold me in your memory
And keep my image there without me,
By telling later loves about me.
July 22, 2009
At the rising sun and at its going down we remember them.
At the blowing of the wind and in the chill of winter we remember them.
At the opening of the buds and in the rebirth of spring we remember them.
At the blueness of the skies and in the warmth of summer we remember them.
At the rustling of the leaves and in the beauty of the autumn we remember them.
At the beginning of the year and when it ends we remember them.
As long as we live, they too will live, for they are now a part of us. As we remember them. When we are weary and in need of strength we remember them.
When we are lost and sick at heart we remember them.
When we have decisions that are difficult to make we remember them.
When we have joy we crave to share we remember them.
When we have achievements that are based on theirs we remember them.
For as long as we live, they too will live,
For they are now a part of us, as we remember them.
July 22, 2009
We have shared
A significant moment
With tears awash
Amidst the quiet Smiles
Your handclasp
There surging
We acknowledge
The love and the Life
With profound Expression
As we embrace
And remember
The exhilarating
Poignant living
Walking upon time
Now
With a silent kiss
July 22, 2009
We’ve shared our lives these many years. You’ve held
My hand; you’ve held my heart. So many blessings, so
few tears – Yet for a moment, we must part. The
memories you’ve given me are times I’ve shared with
my best friend I’ll hold them, Right here they’ll
be until we share our lives again.
July 22, 2009
And if I go,
while you're still here...
Know that I live on,
vibrating to a different measure
--behind a thin veil you cannot see through.
You will not see me,
so you must have faith.
I wait for the time when we can soar together again,
--both aware of each other.
Until then, live your life to its fullest.
And when you need me,
Just whisper my name in your heart,
...I will be there.
July 22, 2009
Gone yet not forgotten,
although we are apart,
your spirit lives within me,
forever in my heart.
July 22, 2009
The memories of the past are vague
The hurts are forever and forgiven
What I have today is what there is forever
And those are the memories of all I have to hold on to.
In my mind I remember a face-one of beauty
One with rarely a frown
And almost always a smile
In the air I breathe
I know he is there
To guide and protect all who he loved
I will forever be grateful
July 22, 2009
As you danced in the light with joy,
love lifted you. As you brushed against
this world so gently, you lifted us.
July 22, 2009
A butterfly lights beside us like a sunbeam
And for a brief moment its glory
and beauty belong to our world
But then it flies again
And though we wish it could have stayed...
We feel lucky to have seen it.
July 22, 2009
There will never be another one
to replace you in our hearts,
and the love we will always
have for you.
July 22, 2009
A gift for such a little while,
your loss just seems so wrong,
you should not have left before us,
it’s with loved ones you belong.
July 21, 2009
love is not about who you live with, its about who you cant live without...theres not a day that goes by that I dont think of you.
July 10, 2009
Rivers of tears will always be in my heart for you..
July 10, 2009
When you wake up tomorrow and I am no where to be found
When you scream out my name to the emptiness around
When every beat inside your heart is skipping and unsure
Cry not my friend for I am here, inside your love so pure
When the waves that used to touch our feet have gone back out to sea
When everything you once held dear was lost when you lost me
When the sun that once lit up your face is setting far away
Cry not my Friend for time shall pass, but my love for you will stay
When age arrives and children play and pain creeps up on you
When loved ones show you happiness that your life never knew
When all of your expectations are met, no matter what the pain
Cry not my friend, for I am waiting to hold you once again
When beauty in your eyes turn gray and all of the rainbow, white
When strong undying hearts no longer feel an urge to fight
When winter snows become more pain than beauty in your heart
Cry not my friend, for I am here and we will never ever part
July 10, 2009
It broke my heart to lose you,
But you did not go alone
Part of me went with you,
the day God called you home.
A million times I've thought of you
A million times I've cryed
If loving could have saved you
You would have never died
Forgive me Lord, I'll always weep
For the brother I loved but could not keep.
July 10, 2009
He is gone, but not forgotten
His memory lives on
Ray, you were a blessing
Who fulfilled our lives for so long.
Now our eyes are filled with sorrow
For without you is how we face tomorrow
Laughter is how I remember you best
Full of faith, sunshine, and happiness.
Football, friends, family, and cheer
Just a few of the things that you held dear.
Holidays and birthdays will never be the same
Without you there.
God is smiling down as you watch us from above.
Reunited in Heaven, for eternity we will stay.
Our good times are now a memory
As you are laid to rest
Know that you are in our hearts
We love you and God Bless.
July 10, 2009
You live on
in your sister's smile
your younger niece's humor
You live on
in the heart of your dad
in the heart of your mom
when we eat ice tea mix out the can,
pancakes swimming in syrup,
soggy bowls of cereal
and pick croutons out of a salad.
You live on
when we choose
not to make mountains out of mole hills,
give to the charities,
whisper "I love You",
find beauty in the dusty toad
in the garden.
You live on,
here on this earth everyday
and we anticipate when we will live again,
with you in eternity.
July 10, 2009
A gentle wind blew cross the land
Reaching out to take a hand
For on the winds the angels came
Calling out a name.
Left behind, the tears
Loving memories of the years
Of joy and love, a life well spent
And now to God sent.
On angel's wings, a heavenly flight
The journey home, towards the light
To those who weep, a life is gone
But in God's love, 'tis but the dawn
July 10, 2009
Love never disappears for death is a non-event.
I have merely retired to the room next door.
You and I are the same; what we were for each other, we still are.
Speak to me as you always have, do not use a different tone, do not be sad.
Continue to laugh at what made us laugh.
Smile and think of me.
Life means what it has always meant.
The link is not severed.
Why should I be out of your soul if I am out of your sight?
I will wait for you, I am not here, but just on the other side of this path.
You see, all is well.
July 10, 2009
Within each flickering flame, in our hearts, you will always belong
You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide,
And though we cannot see you, you are always at our side.
July 10, 2009
Although we can't see you
we know you are here
Smiling down, watching over us
Forever in our hearts,
Forever in our lives,
In loving memory of you.
June 11, 2009
I spent years doing everything with you and now everything I do, is with you in my thoughts.

Thinking of you Ray. I miss your smile and talking you as you walked down the park. I know your in a better place were there is no evil, pain or sickness. Enjoy it, for you are now an angel. You are missed by so many. Watch down on them and comfort them. They all miss you deeply.

Tears should not flow like little valley streams,for I am home watching you live your lives for me.I can not tell you how happy I was to have met and known you and for all to become my friends, and a part of me. My heart lives on in another living man,one of my dreams;becoming a husband and father. My childhood I lived to the fulliest, oh what fun for me. For only I am gone from your world to live in a better place. God has opened his arms wide and welcomed me all in good grace, for his only son was sacraficed,for sin of our own faith.Believe when I say I wish I could be there,but I am near because my mother and father live in my place, my sister and my nieces. I am always watching them keeping my legacy ALIVE!,and how proud I am of the strength that they share together. For my family I love dearly and my closest friends and I can only wait for all will be in a fine place. When they all come home. Through my mother and fathers heart these words are spoken.Remember you are not alone;as I am not Forgotten! Love you all very much! #33

HEARTSTRINGS
When those we love go away, they never really leave us;
they are with us now, wherever we are.
Those whom we have cherished, live on forever,
for love wraps itself around the heart.
Although it's difficult now,
someday beyond our tears and all the world's wrongs;
beyond the clouds and all that we can see and touch,
we shall all understand.
Debbie
April 29, 2009
I cannot say that I know, just how you feel
For your hurt is so great, and will take God's touch to heal
Yet is it possible for such a wound, to completely ever mend
When you've lost your mate, parent, child or good friend
Please know that I pray for you, each and every day
And feel God's Holy Spirit, in small and simple ways
And then I am reminded, of such a simple phrase
With all the strength that's in you, please walk by faith
So come to me and talk about, anything you feel
For I'll be here in body, but Christ will soon reveal
That while it is impossible, for a friend to end your pain
HE will bring about a peace, and in your hurt sustain
Debbie
April 29, 2009
If tears could build a stairway and memories were a lane,
We would walk all the way to Heaven, to bring you home again
No farewell words were spoken, no time to say good-bye
You were gone before we knew it, and only God knows why
Our hearts ache in sadness, and secret tears will flow
What is meant to lose you, no one will ever know
Jenn Hoffman
April 24, 2009
When the Sun's the warmest and the sky's the prettiest I know it's you smiling down. I hope you can see me smileing back at you.
April 23, 2009
When a person you love passes away
Look to the night sky on a clear day.
The star that to you, appears to be bright,
Will be your loved one,
Looking upon you during the night.
The lights of heaven are what shows through
As your loved one watches all that you do.
When you feel lonely for the one that you love,
Look to the Heavens in the night sky above.
April 23, 2009
Remembrance is a golden chain
Death tries to break,
but all in vain.
To have, to love, and then to part
Is the greatest sorrow of one's heart.
The years may wipe out many things
But some they wipe out never.
Like memories of those happy times
When we were all together.
April 23, 2009
Come to me in my dreams, and then
By day I shall be well again!
For then the night will more than pay
The hopeless longing of the day.
April 23, 2009
But should the angels call for him much sooner than we’d planned.
“We’ll brave the bitter grief that comes and try to understand.”
April 23, 2009
Death leaves a heartache
no one can heal;
Love leaves a memory no
one can steal.

When someone you love becomes a memory,
that memory becomes a treasure.
April 23, 2009
No farewell words were spoken,
no time to say goodbye.
you were
gone before we knew it...
April 23, 2009
I thought of you with love today but that is nothing new
I thought about you yesterday and days before that too,
I think of you in silence I often speak your name
All I have are memories and your picture in a frame
Your memory is my keepsake with which I’ll never part
God has you in His keeping
I have you in my heart.
April 23, 2009
In the air I breathe
I know he is there
April 23, 2009
One with rarely a frown
And almost always a smile !
April 23, 2009
As we look back over time
We find ourselves wondering .....
Did we remember to thank you enough
For all you have done for us?
For all the times you were by our sides
To help and support us .....
To celebrate our successes
To understand our problems
And accept our defeats?
We wonder if we ever thanked you
for the simple things
Like laughter, smiles and times we shared?
If we have forgotten to show our
Gratitude enough for all the things you did,
We're thanking you now.
And we are hoping you knew all along,
How much you meant to us.
April 23, 2009
I’d like the memory of me
to be a happy one.
I’d like to leave an after glow
of smiles when life is done,
I’d like to leave an echo
whispering softly down the ways,
Of happy times and laughing
times and bright and
summer days.
I’d like the tears of those who
grieve, to dry before the sun,
Of happy memories that I leave
When life is done.
April 23, 2009
Not how did he die, but how did he live?
Not what did he gain, but what did he give?
These are the units to measure the worth
Of a man as a man, regardless of birth.
Not, what was his church, nor what was his creed?
But had he befriended those really in need?
Was he ever ready, with word of good cheer,
To bring back a smile, to banish a tear?
Not what did the sketch in the newspaper say,
But how many were sorry when he passed away.
April 23, 2009
A gift for such a little while,
your loss just seems so wrong,
you should not have left before us,
it’s with loved ones you belong.
April 23, 2009
...Grieve not,
nor speak of me with tears,
but laugh and talk of me
as if I were beside you...
April 22, 2009
If the people we love are stolen from us, the way to have them live on is to never stop loving them.

I wish for you..EVERYDAY!

'To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did.' When God takes something from your grasp, He's not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better. Concentrate on this sentence... 'The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.'

When elders pass we are mostly happy. We are sorry to see them go, but happy for them that this hard hard life is done. They got their reward.But when a young soul dies there's no sense of finish. The candle didn't burn down after glowing all night. A cold wind came through and blew it out long before the dawn.

God bless his soul...rest in peace kid...

Ray, there isn't a day that goes by that we don't think about you! It is now three years since God took you home with Him and for us it never gets easier living without you. We will always love you, think about you and hold you in our hearts. We miss your smiling face and your laughter!
Love you Always,

Watch over your family and let them know you are now a angle and shining down on them. Miss you!!!!!!!
