I am a dear friend of his son Paul, I didn't have the pleasure of meeting him, but I do know how much his son loved him and cared for him. He spoke of him often and looked up to him in many ways. He will be missed and he is in a better place now. Love, Kendra Radford

Grace and Family, It is so hard to believe he is gone. We will always remember his laugh. He loved to have fun and play but he would always be there to help with anything that needed to be done. Wish we could have made it to the services. All our love is with you Grace.

Dear Grace & Family,
I am sorry to hear of your loss. Even though I didn't know him very well, one thing is for sure, Ray was a good man. I would like to say that our thoughts and prayers are with you. I am sorry, but we will not be able to make the service on Monday, and we will more than likely not be able to make it to the viewing today. Again, our sincerest apologies.
Pearl, Edward & Brady
