My thoughts and prayers are with Pamela. I will always remember Raymond with a charming smile, for his brilliant mind and that he was always very kind to me. May he be at peace and looking down on us.
Pam, I am so very, very sorry. I always looked so forward to seeing both of you. Ray was such a good, forthright, honest person. I’m thinking of you and family, and sending all my love. Please let me know if I can do anything. Love, Connie
Pam, I am deeply saddened by your loss. When both of you would attend Awards and Scholarships, he was always so gracious to everyone. You are in my prayers.
Dearest Pam, my thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad, sad time. Surely heaven has gained an angel in Ray.
