Ray A. Yoder

I first met Ray in the Fall of 1968 during rush at the Beta Theta Pi fraternity house. He introduced himself, "Hi! I'm Ray Yoder, my friends call me Bear". I told him everyone calls me Turtle. Bear and Turtle have remained friends for over 56 years and will be fraternity brothers forever. I'll miss you bro! Love, Steve "Turtle" Thompson

Ray and were roommates Freshman year at Wittenberg. I was very reluctant to actually get up to my morning alarm, and Ray had to move myalarm clock some nights after I was asleep so that I would have to actually get out of bed. Ray is a great guy and a great roommate. I am sorry to hear of his passing. Bob Yarger
