I am just learning of Ray's passing. I had many wonderful conversations with him. We used to refer to him as the Godfather of Shorewood Cafe and the VFW . I always thought he had the most graceful hands and perfect for signing. Rest in peace my dear friend.

It was a privilege to know Ray and family. We are sorry to have been
less able to travel these last few years which curtailed our visits to relatives.

We pray God continues to hold the Ayala family in his hands, comforting them, guiding them, and encouraging them.

Ray Ayala was a good friend. We kept in touch all these years. Sonny and I visited Ray and Linda in Washington and he took us to his beautiful beach house and we had a great time together. Ray and Linda came to see us in Scottsdale, Arizona and we had a great time reminiscing about our High School days. Ray was a good friend and we will miss him. I am sure you will be in heaven praying for all of us, because that is who you are. May God bless you and rest in peace our friend.

Love always, Tu Amigo's

Sonny and Gracie Alvarado.

My sincere condolences to the Ayala family. Ray was a bright light to all who knew him. My father, Gene Munson, and Ray were two peas in a pod. They are likely sharing a glass of red wine now. RIP Ray!
