I will always remember how gentle, kind and considerate Raymond was even in his twenties,
I went to visit my cousin Raymond from Scotland to Michigan when I was just 14 in 1972,
He took me along with him one day to visit his patients at the psychiatric hospital were he was working at the time and I could see the love and affection that everyone including patients and staff had for Raymond who was just starting his career at the time and was only 24yrs old,
Rest in peace Raymond you will be sadly missed,
Hughie
