It was an honor to help take care of Ray when he was in the hospital at North Suburban a few years ago. We are so sorry to hear about Ray's passing. Blessings to your family during this difficult time.

I have some great memories of spending time with Uncle Ray and Aunt Sharon. From him chasing Mickey down when she tried to escape in a go kart when she was 4, to learning to ride 4 wheelers and going up to Colorado. Great times with a great man and family. You will be missed on earth Uncle Ray. Rest In Peace. Miss you.

Ray will be missed by many people. i would always see him out when I visited my friends house just down the street from where his family lived. Ray was a very friendly person and a great friend in school.

I remember Raymond as a kind, friendly, and very likable young fellow. We had a few classes together at MHS. He invited me to visit his church with him, and we had some interesting discussions.

Ray was a neighbor when we were in school and he was a steady person who could be relied upon to be honest. I used to babysit his family and he was always a help. Over the years, I lost touch with Raymond, but knew hi well enough to know that he never really changed.

Ray was a neighbor during our younger years. His parents and mine played cards together on weekends and Ray and his brothers and sister would play ball and other games in the street, back when Mesquite was small enough you didn't have to worry about cars. Ray you will be missed but we will see you again someday. You were a true friend.

I have known Ray since we were in the 5th grade together in 1954. I was new to the school in Mesquite, Texas and Ray was the first student to come up to me and want to be friends. As luck would have it, he and his family lived on my street just four houses away. Ray, Jim, Jerry, Terry, Pat and I grew up together and shared many memories. Although we went our separate ways after high school and haven't seen each other in several years, Ray and I remained friends by long distance. When my son passed away in July, Ray called and we talked for some time. There was something really comforting in this conversation with an old friend. But I guess that's what friends are for. I wish to express my deepest sympathy to his entire family. I will truly miss Ray.
