Dear Joyce and Family. Bob and I were so very sorry to hear of Ray's death. Bob was also touched that Ray requested donations to Mooseheart. Mooseheart is so dear to Bob as that is where he was raised. We have so many wonderful memories of the times spent with both Ray and you Joyce.
Please know that you are in our thoughts and daily prayers.

He will be missed but not forgotten. He was a great teacher not only of Drafting but in life's lessons. He was always concerned about his students and really cared. With fond memories and deepest sympathy.

Dear Joyce,
My father Ray just told me about your husband Ray's passing. No doubt the last time you saw me was 50+ years ago, because my Mom, Emma (DiDesiderio) Sinchak was your friend! I remember Mom talking about you as a friend! We lost her in 1987 - way too soon (at age 54). On behalf of my Mom - your friend - I send you and your family my condolences in the loss of your dear husband. I too am a widow (6+ years). As a Catholic, I find comfort in knowing my husband resides in the perfect, permanent home - heaven. I hope you too find comfort in that fact. I look forward to the time when we will all be reunited - OH, the party we will have! Take care of yourself and turn to your children, friends and family for comfort. That will help, I promise. Sending you my thoughts & prayers - your friend Emma's firstborn, Desiree.
