We were very sorry to hear of Ray's passing and wish Vickie and all the family the Peace that passes all understanding. He was a tremendous friend to my Dad, and I have fond memories of visiting Ray and Dad at John Bee's on Prospect. The Cardinals have lost a super fan - I'm really glad he got to experience such great years of late! Rest in Peace, Ray,

So sorry to hear about your loss. I have such great memories of Ray from him working at John Bee with my Dad and me spending so much time at your house as a kid. I'll always remember the John Bee bus trips to the Cardinals-Cubs games. He sure did love his Cardinals. My condolences to the entire family.

Vickie and family: We are so grateful for the friendship we have developed with you and "Mr. Maybanks" over the last few years. You have such a wonderful family which we know will give you great support in the days ahead. I know you and Ray were so very proud of all of them. While we could never win the $100 Bradley Raffle it was fun selling Ray the ticket anyway. You are in our thoughts and prayers as you face this new transition in your live. You know we are here for you anytime!
Love,
Dick and Sue
