Dear Cousin Bea & Family; From the moment I met Ray I thought he was someone special. A beautiful smile and a gentile manner. He was a great husband to Bea and father to his family. He will be missed by all of us as well as his family. We pray that our Father in Heaven's blessings will buoy you up at this time of your loss. Families are Forever and will be reunited when we leave this earth.
