Pat, Chris and Betsi, my heart goes out to you. I enjoyed seeing Ray every time I did. He was such a solid, loyal, reliable, funny guy. He was what everyone would want in a father, a friend, a teammate, an employee or co-worker, a man.
When I think of the appreciation we all have of the quiet heroes of the heartland, I think of Ray. He had so many great friends because he earned them. We will all miss him.
