I will never forget my trip to California with Aunt Barb and Uncle Ray. They helped my relocating to LaSierra University a memorableexperience!! Uncle Ray loved puzzles and maps. He was one of the most intellegent people I have ever met!!! I look forward to seeing him again in Heaven!!!
Barb, I am so sorry! Ray was a special person and you have always been right by his side. I know that the last few years have been difficult, but you have shown great love and strength, taking one day at a time. Reflect on the precious memories that you have shared through 60 years together, until you meet again! Keeping you close in thought and prayer… Cyndi Armstrong
Our love and prayers are with you Barb. I know this is a hard time for you and Ray will be missed by many people. I will always cherish the time we spent with you and Ray on our visit to Indiana, I know the kids had a great time, as did Melissa and myself. Ray was one of the most interesting and intelligent person I have ever known, I wish I could have spent more time with him, so I could have learned from him. I always thought of Ray when Butler was playing in the NCAA playoffs. We love you Barb and will miss Ray, he is in a better place and will soon be with God in heaven. Love Jon, Melissa and the kids!
Aunt Barb, I am writing this for Mom. I know that you know how much she wants to be there with you, to help her big Sis through this time. Uncle Ray wasn’t just a brother-in-law to her. He was a brother, too. I know what sweet man he was and how very much he loved you. I knows the loss you are feeling now and how hard the days and weeks ahead will be for you, but I will be there for you. After all, who else do you know who is awake in the middle of the night and always just a phone call away. You are strong, Barbara Lou, and you have the comfort and love of our Father in heaven to hold you and protect you. He will give you the peace you need and someday soon, when Christ returns, He will call Ray home to be with Him. I can’t think of any man more worthy of heaven. I love you, Barb. Your sister, Donnie
I had the pleasure of being Ray’s supervisor when he was the assistant manager at the Hook’s store at Glendale Mall. Ray was a fine man, very friendly and helpful to all and was well-liked and respected by the customers and store employees. He was a real credit to the profession of Pharmacy. Howad Beasley RPh
Aunt Barb , you are in our thoughts and prayers . What I will never forget about my Uncle Ray is that he was a intelligent , kind and gentle man. I remember years ago when we went to visit the Pate Museum in granbury Texas to see the antique cars he could tell us everything there was to know about those cars. Just remember when things get tough ,Ray will always be in your heart and may the comfort of God help you during this difficult time. Love Randy , Debbie and the Kids
