Ray has always been delight to his friends and neighbors. Karen and I are saddened at his passing but glad we were able to know Ray and share his life stories. Our thought and prayers are with his family. Ray always would talk about his children and their families. He also loved to talk about golf, fishing, and racing. In the back of my mind, I can still hear the sounds of NASCAR coming from his garage. He faced sickness and death with courage. We and his other neighbors will miss him greatly.
