To Lois and Family,
My deepest sympathy to all of you at this time. I just became aware of Ray's passing and was saddened to hear but rejoice how blessed he was to have 98 years here on earth! I will always remember Ray as "my bus driver"! Yes! Almost all my school years except for the last few, Ray was the one who kept us kids in line on his route! Not only a driver but a teacher of kindness, caring, patience and more, what a blessing! Our thoughts are with all of you at this time. God's Peace, Keith and Chris

I first met Ray the day I started to high school at elk Creek as he was my bus driver all my years of high school. many fond memories of those times . As I married and stayed in elk Creek I learned to know the whole family and then thru the American Legion. I will miss meeting you on the road with always that wave. My deepest sympathy to you all and especially Lois as life changes but keep your faith ad God will see you thru it. God's Blessings!!! Lucille

Raymond and Lois were one of the great couples that I loved seeing at the clinic. I would always try my best to be the nurse that helped Raymond back to a room, and back into the car safely, but mostly loved that he always held my hand as he walked. :) I will miss Raymond, but now I can hold Lois' hand. What a sweet man he was.
