Mr. Ray will be missed by all. He was always smiling, hugging and being such a wonderful person. He was always willing to help with everything. I will truly miss him at the church and around town. I know he was welcomed into Heaven with open arms!!!

To Mr. Lilton, Mrs. Doris, Leon and Charlene and Vernon and Linda and all of Mr. Henry's family,

I can not express to you my sorry for your family in the lost of a loved one but rejoice in knowing how much Ray was looking forward to being with his Lord and Savior. He has begun his new life now.

Mr. Henry was such a dear to me. While I worked at St. Louis I relied on him for so many things. He was always so very helpful to me and others. If I didn't know where something was on the complex then Mr. Henry did. We worked very good together.

Mr. Henry wil be missed terribly at our parish. Not one single person will be able to take his place or do everything that he alone did.

Ray was such a giving and caring person, always a kind word for everyone. A man of Grace. I especially remember those hugs of his. He would "embrace" everyone he met, no matter if he had know you forever or if he just met you.

A man who loved his faith, who loved serving his God and man who wanted nothing in return. He never wanted to be recognized for anything he did for our church. A humble man, a man of true faith.

God Bless you Mr. Ray! I know that you have gone on to your glorious reward!

Peace be with you!
Sharon
