Aunt Lois and family,
Zack and I are so sorry about the passing of Uncle Ray. There truly are no adequate words. He was loved tremendously by so many. What a wonderful and beautiful day it will be when we are all united in heaven, and how blessed we are to have the promise of eternity through Christ. Uncle Ray loved you all so much and I know he will always love you. Death cannot triumph over love. I pray that comfort, peace, and strength find you.

I have so many memories of Uncle Ray and they all make me smile. Playing in the river at the reunions, he never got tired of us kids saying “watch me!” Stretching barbwire fence and singing the entire time while the rest of us grumbled. He was such a sweet man who loved God and his family. We will meet again Uncle Ray and have a dance.
