Brenda and Ray Jr.
I am very sorry for your loss. I will greatly miss taking care of Mr. Ray. He was such a sweet and caring man. I’ll miss going in his room just to talk or sit with him. I don’t know if this will give you both any comfort, but at least he is not in pain any longer and he’s up in heaven with your mom and both are looking down on you both and your other sister. Watching over their children and knowing that they raised some very loving, caring and wonderful kids. I never met your other sister, but I got the chance to meet you two,curled up in those hard chairs trying to sleep and watch over your dad at night, and me trying not to wake you up when I checked on Mr. Ray during the night. And in my 34 yrs. of doing this type of work I have never met two more loving and caring children as you two are. I’m glad that Mr. Ray had ya’ll with him when he passed on to heaven. It was an honor and pleasure to care for such a sweet man like Mr. Ray You’re all in my prayers and thoughts. God Bless you and keep all of you safe.
