My husband & I met Ray & Linda in fall of 2012 on a trip to Tn. Linda was my long lost cousin and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit with them, They came to see us on the west coast a couple years later and were so much fun. We miss both of them so very much! Gosh, Ray accomplished so many outstanding endeavors- a real great citizen, military man and patriot. What a wonderful family he and Linda raised. Prayers to all the family!
