This shows we have been missing our Beloved Uncle Ray for 4 years. As I sit here, it feels like it has been more than a decade, maybe even two since we got to try to sneak up to the tv without him saying, "I'm watching dat", even though he was snoring. I think he had as much fun as we kids did with that little game. GOD, How I miss him! Just knowing he was always there.

My dearest Uncle Ray,
How can I Honor You? I never knew you to not be a Gentleman. You and Aunt Nevie gave me a place to live. You taught me to drive a standard on the column and told me how to transfer it to a stick shift. You always had a hug, pat on the back, a quick smile, even though Aunt Nevie wouldn't let us tickle you. I called you Uncle, but I loved you as a Father. Thank You for being there for me. I love You
