Nearly 30 years ago, Ray Bilinski and his wife Kasia helped me take care of my daughter Delilah when she was only 8 months old, and her mother was gravely ill in the hospital. I will never forget, not can I ever repay, the love and kindness Ray and Kasia showed me and my family at that tragic time in our lives.

I will miss Ray's sense of humor and his jolly voice. He was always a happy and gregarious presence at all of my family's parties over the years.

May he rest in peace and my deepest sympathies to his wife Kasia and to his daughter Ann Marie.
