Will miss you Ray.

Words cannot describe just how much I miss you Dad. You were always there for me no matter what and I will forever be lost without you. You had a heart of gold and always put others before you. I can honestly say you are the world's greatest Dad and I will miss you dearly. I love you with all my heart. R.I.P ❤
