To Flossie, Daryl, David and family, I extend my most heartfelt sympathy. I have always had deep respect for Raymond for the wonderful, caring person he was, and for his incredible sense of humor.  He seemed to cherish and enjoy anyone who knew him, and always had quick and engaging wit. I was honored beyond words that he and Flossie allowed me to care for them in my office. My sincerest condolences to his family

Ray, we were friends thru St Anthony’s grade school, I visited your home during school days, and I vividly remember helping you and your father down at the farm on Duke Street, plant tomatoes!  We went down life’s path, getting together at class reunions.  You will be missed my friend, but I retain the great memories of our past.  To your wife Florence, my deepest condolences, and to your family.
