I am very sad to discover the death of my friend Ray. We were Lane Tech classmates (Class of 1957) and went to our prom as a double date. I married my date, Joan. For many years we had no contact, then Ray reached out and me sent a Christmas card. Every year for the last several years, we exchanged cards at Christmas. I must confess that I knew few details of Ray's life, and now it is too late. I will miss him.

We went to school together at IIT and were friends and stayed in touch all these years. I'm very sorry to hear about Ray's passing.

Deepest sympathy on the loss of a dear friend. I knew Ray as an IITRI colleague for over 20 years and never saw him without a smile on his face. He will be missed by many.
