I am saddened by the news of Ray's passing. He was my cousin. We knew him well as children having grown up in Franklin, Louisiana where he lived with his Aunts, Nora & Edna Matherne. We somewhat reconnected the last 10 years via Facebook. I remember he was witty, had a passion for cars & had an infectious smile. May he rest in peace. God Bless you all.

Please know you where one of the best men I have had the privilege of knowing for many years. Please look over Sheena from above, as her guardian angel. We all love you so much, and know you will be missed by all of us that knew you.
