Just found out Ray had passed in March. I knew him very well at one time from the Videography business and later on, The Woonsocket racquetball club. He was a master at his profession. However, his best trait was his outgoing and friendly personality Glad I got to know and work with him.

Where to begin in what to say as a memorial. There is not enough space to write all the memories that come to mind nor is there enough time in life to remember them all.
You were a second father to me and you never hesitated to act as such.
I'm flooded with memories and I just can't make the words reach my fingers.
Maybe I could use this space to apologize for eating so many of your M & M's.
I know I'll miss you forever "Dad".
