I already feel the loss of you being in this world, Raymond. Your father, my Uncle Ray, was such a kind and decent man. You must have looked up to him, because you followed right in his footsteps. My prayers will be with your loving wife, Pat, your children, and your grandkids. Rest in peace, my dear cousin.
