I met Raymond and his wife Maria last Summer at the Geneva SDA church. I thoroughly enjoyed my brief conversations with both of them. I wish I had been able to get to know him better. He did not introduce himself as a PHD and I only found out later, but he did impress me as very intelligent. I am much saddened to hear that he passed away.

May God give comfort to the family.

Just last September, Raymond sent me Phantom Pandemic, and other papers on the ongoing covid mess, which I shared with many others. My condolences to his family. Rest my friend, I hope to see you again soon.

Raymond had a voice as soft as Summer rain. In all his astuteness, he mustered a calming smile. Not being raised around my Dad´s big beautiful family, he and others made me feel welcomed, nevertheless, and I´m glad to have known him.
I´ve cried sorrowful tears over Raymond, but my spirits are lifted, KNOWING that he crossed over with favor in our Creator´s eyes. Rest In Peace Raymond for the sheaves that will come.

Raymond was a courageous man who freely shared the 3 angels message along with the ministry of healing as the right arm of the Gospel. We are grateful for his courageous stand against mandated medicine. We mourn for him and especially for your loss and hope to see him soon after the coming of Christ

Thank you for your investigations into the vaccine narrative. Your research was helpful in my own quest to determine if vaccinations were the path I wanted to choose for my family.
May you rest in peace and may your loved ones know that you helped just one person make an informed choice.

I am so sorry to see that Ray died. I remember him well from academy. He was always so gentle and friendly to everyone. I only saw him once, later at Andrews University. He always seemed so calm and almost regal in his bearing.
