Ray was one of my favorite "old guys" my dad hung out with when I was younger. Loved him dearly. How did he keep his hair so damn perfect all of the time? Nothing but good memories.

Ray was a man of few words but all that knew him were aware of his kindness and caring personality. I called him brother-in-law and friend for 50 years. He will be sorely missed by all. We were blessed to have him in our lives. To my sister, Lynne, his wife and to his family our deepest condolences.

I am truly saddened about the loss of Ray my brother in law. The only consolation is that now he is at peace & no more suffering. Ray was not only my brother in law but more important, a great person & friend. He was always willing to help me with any projects I needed done such as my 3 sealing fans, shelves for my speakers & so many other things he did for me over the 50 years I knew him.

My hope, is that we at a future time will all be together again.

To Ray's family & especially my sister Lynne, my thoughts & prayers are with you.

Ray will be sorely missed by family. friends and those who had the good fortune to make his acquaintance. Always there to lend a helping hand. So very talented. I always said he could build a house using match sticks. There will be a great void in our lives. We are all so lucky to have so many wonderful memories. Until we meet again

My Uncle Ray was such a talented individual who was always put family first in addition to lending a hand to friends or his fellow Veterans. He will always be remembered for his help on various projects, since he never had idle hands. His quick wit and sense of humor made him a joy to be around. We will miss him immensely. My condolences go out to his family and friends.

My Uncle Ray was a man capable of doing anything - mechanical, electrical, woodworking, plumbing. He was a strong but quiet person. He and my Aunt Lynne have been inseparable for my entire life. He is loved. He will be missed.
