I hope you’re doing okay I just ran across this and I’m so sorry for your loss but I know he’s in a better place now hopefully we will see you soon my friend
It seems like yesterday when you and Ray came over to my house and offered the use of your limousine to take my family to Roseberry’s
for Bob’s funeral and to the cemetery. Such a nice offer that was greatly appreciated. There were other times that you were both so helpful.
I remember having so much fun tubing on lake Arrowhead, we loved those 100 degree days just to play on the lake. Ray’s nicknames, old thing and wild thing and hamsterhead lol where the hell they all came up from is besides me, but it puts a smile on my face.
I will always remember Ray as a gentle soul, who will never be forgotten.
I am so sad to hear about sweet Joe. We just found out today. You know my heart is with you. The family doesn’t get together much anymore. I miss those times as that is when I would get to see everyone. Sending my love. Always in my heart. Blessings
