Hello Rae, I am writing this as a great friend to John, I am an 7 year employee at Hickory Hills Country Club. I just adored your Dad, He was spunky,fun and knew a lot about golfing. I was the early starter at the counter and he was here before sun up to get his golf game on with his friend Stan. I will truly miss his Vegas stories and friendship. He is finally with your Mom , may you take comfort in that to help heal your sad heart. All My Love and sympathy.

I remember living on Carpenter St.. Ray was always willing to listen to a bunch of giggling girls. He would play catch with us in the street. Ray was a very warm, charming man. He was my first real crush. All my sympathies to Rae Ann and family. Rest east Ray.
