To the Parra Family: It is with a deep heaviness in my heart that I have become aware of Raymond's passing. He has entered my thoughts from time to time since I last saw him four years ago. Just today, my memory of him prompted a search…and the sad discovery of his passing. I will always remember his kind smile, warm handshake, and sincere demeanor. He was a gem of a person – a gentle, wonderful man. I am truly honored to have had the opportunity to know and care for him; I am also so sorry that I was unaware of your family's loss of Raymond and his son Patrick until now. Your family will remain in my thoughts always.
Mom, it was wonderful seeing you at the Candle Lighting Ceremony recently.You are a wonderful mommy.
It was our honor to know Mr. Parra. His smile & kindness to us will alway be our treasured memory. Rest in Peace.
Uncle Ray will be remembered as a kind and gentle man, his love of golf and time I got to spend with on the course is something that will stay with me forever…
Dad,We just got home from saying good bye to you and Pat. Mom is doing fine and we are all strong just like you taught us to be. Don't worry we will take care of mom and make sure she is OK. I know she misses you already, we all do. Your viewing and funeral were wonderful many members of your family and friends were there to say good bye. Dad it really hurts knowing I won't be getting a call from you to see how the kids are doing, but I will always let them know their grandpa is watching over them. Dad you set the example that I live my life by and I can never thank you enough for that. You will always be with me in my heart and I will see you and Patrick soon. We can all play golf together again and maybe go for a run.I love you Dad.Your Son.
It has been but a few days since making an entry on this page for your incredible family.The words I expressed on Patrick's page speak for me yet again; take extra, extra special care of Mom.God bless you,
To the Parra family,Our deepest sympathies go out to you all. Coach was such a special man and touched our lives in many ways. We love you all and are here for whatever you may need.-Jaime & Lori Sandoval
I was saddened to hear about the demise of your loving father. Although no words can really help to ease the loss you bear, just know that you are very close in our every thought and prayer. May your memories give you strength. Uncle Ray's big smile will always be a lasting memory for me, not to mention our shared passion for 007.
My deepest sympathy to you all. I have fond memories of Ray.
