Dear Linda and family,
I’m so sorry to hear of Ray’s passing. I can’t be in Columbia this weekend, but you and Ray will be in my thoughts and prayers. He probably made me laugh more than anyone I’ve ever known. He had a great personality and sense of humor. I have nothing but fond memories of him (and many stories) from those years when ironworking was fun and the men were great friends. My sincere condolences to you and his family. Please have one for me in his memory.
April, I just saw your dad’s obituary in the Tribune. I am so sorry for your loss. I never got to know your dad very well but I know that he has been suffering. You have my deepest sympathy.
