Susan and family,
I am so sorry to hear this. I worked with Ray so many years and then worked for him as my boss. He was the greatest. Nothing ever seemed to ruffle him. He was always calm in all situations. It was a pleasure to work with and for him. He also loved his family very much. His eyes would shine when he talked about you. He will be missed very much. May God comfort you during this trying time.
