Ray’s “2 Time National Champion” records still stands, from the mid 80’s and his Ocean State Pistol League record top score of 300 still stands from the 1995-1996 season. Ray was always ready to coach a potential and willing shooter. Ray had a good sense of humor and could stand up to the pressure of the game. Ray was a good man and a friend and he is already missed.
