I wish you were here. I love you Ray!
I love you forever Raymond!!!!!!
Raymond, I'm missing you so much lately!!!! I would do anything to talk to you. Baby, I still love you very much. I hope you have been helping Jay out up there in heaven. My world is so sad without the two of you. One good thing is that Jake is living with me now. I never thought that would happen again and I'm very grateful for that. I love you forever and always!!! -Tiffiney Rae

Happy Easter Ray! I love you !!!
Ray, I just want you to know how much I love and care for you.....I really hope you are with your loving wife and family and that they are making sure you are OK. I still can't believe this has happened and we'll, just everything. I'm so sorry for all of my poor behavior. So sorry! If you are watching, please see how this, your death, has devastated me. I honestly wish we would have gotten married. I wish we would have had more time MY RAY. Your family asked me to stay away and I have. Out of respect to you.....I just quietly disappeared but baby I'm still here. Wishing we could be together just one last time. Shoot. I will never forget us. Nothing could ever compare. You were such a wonderful man. I'm so grateful for the time and love we shared together. Take good care my man. No more pain or fear... or disappointment. I love you forever Ray. Thank you for teaching me so many things. I love you!!!-Your girl--- Tiffiney Rae
Oh little Brother it's been 193 days since you and a 193 days of missing you I had to write something about you but I think I just didn't want to accept the fact you are gone. I realize now that you have all the qualities of a man I've been looking for my whole life but I d I didn't need one cause I had you. You were strong and brave, you had charisma. Everyone was drawn to that innocent love. Maybe because you were my little Brother but I saw the child in you. Our whole life we were stuck like glue. If you saw Raymond I was right beside you. A friend said you were so damn cute. You were so handsome but it was your big heart you just loved people and always willing to help. You were so intelligent I learned so much from you. I am so lost without you. I loved looking out for you making toll house cookies. You were a genius you actually made me a vacuum with things you had in the garage because you couldn't watch your pregnant sister sweeping the carpet. To give just one memory of your wouldn't give the other million justice. It's taken me 193 days to be brave enough to tell the world what a jewel you are. I can't hold back my tears there will never be anyone in this world that will come close to our love. You were my protector and I was yours. Nae is what you called me when you were learning to talk and it stayed with us. I'm sorry about our childhood but as long as we had each other there wasn't a mountain we couldn't climb. And it seemed like you were always climbing. I always wanted you to experience life when you didn't have to climb and Damn it my heart worked hard. You were almost there. You fought adversities and the hour before you passed my final act of love was happening unbeknownst to me you were taken your last breath as I was trying to tell you The news we had been waiting for my act of love looking out for my little Brother. They were serving the complaint for the half a million dollar lawsuit for the injustice of one man's cruel treatment taking everything you worked so hard for. I was your big sister and I wasn't going to let anyone try to take what you built away from you. Damn it that half a million dollar lawsuit died with you. My final act of love over a hundred hours my heart poured into it because nobody was going to mess with you not while I have a breath and nobody and nothing ever stopped me from loving you. Anne and Barbara shared some beautiful funny about you. My heart is broken through I always thought we would go together and apart of me said you forgot to take me with you. But I have a life and Beautiful Children and one of the best days of my life my first Granddaughter was born but just a week later was one of the hardest days of my life . I had a beautiful Granddaughter and a week later I lost you. But I remember 2 things that I can sat about that. As I watch your tired body try to rest I could see your body was exhausted but that wasn't going to stop you from looking out for the things you loved more than life your 3 sons. But I remember the last time you spent the night with me and the l had for you I asked God to let you get some rest so that darn prayer was answered I just wasn't ready for you to go. I remember on mom's birthday you said I hope I can go like mom. You said God loved her so much he just took her quickly because he loved her so much she didn't have to suffer and went out strong because she was an angel. Yes and it is true about you God knew your heart and he too just lifted you up to Heaven strong and brave no pain no suffering because like Mom he loved you so much. I felt like I was in a near fatal accident and had to learn to walk again because life as I knew it changed forever. I know you are there waiting for me Mom, Dad , you and my Beautiful Son Cory will be there and Ethel and we will all be there no pain no mountains to climb . You fought right up to the end . Most people just don't have the love and compassion to overcome adversities
Raymond you taught me many things about life but most importantly you taught me how to man up. My memories of you wrenching on engines with Metallica blasting in the background is something that I still enjoy to this day. You were such an influence on my youthful years and I’ll never forget you uncle Raymond, may you find peace in paradise and watch over us all until we meet again one day. I love you uncle.
