Ray was my patrol Captian when
I was a Deputy Sheriff.
He was a great friend and cop.
Please let me extend my sympathies.
God Bless you all

Aunt Patty and family-
I will miss Uncle Raymond dearly. I will miss his jokes and Albert Mitchell stubborness. I hated that we couldn't make it down to be with you in your time of need. I know Grandma Thelma will miss her phone chats with Uncle Raymond. She looked forward to their talks. Love you and praying for all of you.
