Raymond Risley Obituary

Commander Ray,
Although a half decade has gone by, know that your memory has not been forgotten, especially by those lives that you have touched along the way.
You are now joined by your good friend, fellow veteran and CPD brother, Harry V. May you both rest in everlasting peace.

Tommy, Billy and Family so sorry for your loss. Mr. Risley as I called him was a good man.... have lots of memories from the Marquette baseball days. Sorry I couldn't make the service for him. He was a good man!
