I am so thankful for the years that Ray and Edna had together. He was such a blessing to her and all our family. My heart and prayers are with all of you in the days and years ahead.

Debbie, thinking of you and your family as you lay your dad to rest...I have sweet and good memories of he and your mom, Margie when we worshiped together at Annapolis Ave...May the good and happy memories that you have soon flood your hearts to help in someway ease the pains of parting...May God Bless you in special ways...Love, Shirley Mills (Doyle , in spirit)

I visited Ray maybe 3 times. In the brief time knowing him I found him to be a very articulate and intelligent and decent man. He loved Ms. Edna dearly I pray for his family as they mourn the loss of this good man.

We have been honored to know "Uncle Ray" through Becky and our son Douglas. We have learned of him as a faithful Christian and a very special uncle to Becky. We understand your loss and offer our sympathy..

I don't know what I could say to anyone of you to make you better, but I can assure you that God is not done with this family yet. God loves each and everyone of you and will work through your grief to bring about his glory and profound love. I know that scripture can be of comfort to you in a time like this, and I want to leave with Psalm 63:3 that quotes that, "God love is better than life." May God be with you at this time. God is not done. He has the final word.
