I met Ray when he did work for Niagara Cutter. He was always willing to do the best job he could. My condolences to the Sekera family.

We met Ray in 1962 when he built a home for my Mom and Step-Dad. Bill and I were so impressed with his honesty and ability to build the finest home he could, we had him build our home in Sanborn in l964. We lived at this residence for 30 years without ever regretting our decision to have Ray build our home. Our only regret was that when we decided to build another home, he had a two year waiting period at the time, and we couldn't wait. But he did offer his assistance if he could help us in anyway. The construction business will never be able to replace such a man of integrity and talent. My condolences to his family. He was a wonderful man, a man to be very proud of. God Bless his family in this, their time of grief. Sincerely,

Joseph Scrivo
