Coach Ray had a huge impact on our family. Our son was a Tallwood high school football player and coach always encouraged and pushed him to his limits. After the games, we would always socialize sharing, laughter and enthusiasm. What a wonderful man..
To the family. We give our most sincere condolences. He was a wonderful individual, caring, and loving. Thank you for sharing him with us.
