Joan and Richard Raines

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

A perfect pair. Never a dull moment with them. Generous with their time, energy and guest couch! Its impossible to believe of life carrying on in the City without them. Especially for me, Joan has been the family anchor in Manhattan. From the early days with Aunt Adele to recent times. She has been person who - like clockwork - stayed in touch with our west coast family and wanted to know whats going on. Always appreciated a good story. And Dick, a funny man who always could bring out a much needed laugh. So, well carry on and I know well never forget these good, special, loving people.

Joan and Dick were the best couple together. Always a smile and a warm word for everyone. I will miss them both so much. I think of them often.
