Ray was a sweet man and a good friend to my parents. He will be missed sincerely - but I know my father will be happy to reunite with him in Heaven and maybe catch up with a game of Poker.

Our prayers are with you all.

I am so sorry for the lost of your Dad, I have known him since childhood and always a very nice man.

My deepest sympathy to the entire Pacheco family, I know your hearts are hurting but to relieve some of the hurt think of the wonderful times you had with your Dad and what he has taught you in life. He is now teaching in another place, but will always be looking over you.
