I grew up with Robin and have known her almost my whole life. Ray was a good man and someone that will be missed by his family, friends and community. He was a bigger than life kind of guy. He had the ablilty to make the people that knew him feel special. He had a wonderful sense of humor and I am glad I had the opportunity to know him. I'll see you in heaven Ray. Until then... Peggy
