My thoughts and prayers are with Uncle Rays Family. I didn't know Uncle Ray very well, but I miss my visits to Wis. and miss everyone we have lost. Now my Dad will have another family member to see again! Love, Denise Kolata (Jerry's Daughter)

I knew Ray from Venus Ford. He would come in for service or a car wash and would always bring candy for me. He loved to talk about his family and was someone who legitimately cared about other people. I know that Ray is now a guardian angel for his family and friends. I'm lucky that I got the chance to know such an excellent man.

Grandpa,
We will miss you. Say "Hi" to Grandma for us. I just went by your house in Windlake yesterday and the pine trees look wonderful I think of you and Grandma everytime I see them. All of our love, Tim & Family
