My family and I had the pleasure of knowing Ray for the 10 years we have lived next door. Ray cared for my and Michelle's daughters as if they were his own. He loved life and was a silver linings kind of guy. Ray and I would have lengthy conversations about life's events and our families. Ray loved his wife, children and grandchildren. They were the world to him. He would share with me stories of them growing up and provide me with advice, at times much needed, on how to handle life's situations. Though I never got to participate in his Tuesday card games I knew Ray really looked forward to seeing his friends and spending that time with them. I have many memories of him that will live forever in my heart. To his family we send our heartfelt sympathies and condolences; you all are in our thoughts.
With love,
Ron, Michelle, Mari & Veronica DeTota
