We were Raymond's neighbors for many years. He was so funny and we enjoyed his company! He could break out the worst puns with no facial expression in a heartbeat - you were never sure if it was a joke, but you always knew it was. Then it would hit you. We will miss him!

I´m very sorry to hear about Ray´s passing. Since I often frequented Barbarian Comics, we had plenty of fun conversations. I could always count on Ray for the corniest jokes and awful puns (I only wished I´d thought of them first). May he rest in peace.

Raymond was such a big part of my treasured friendship with Sharon. He was a wonderful storyteller and always had humor entwined with his stories. I will always remember him as being a kind, warm person and especially will remember his welcoming smile.
