I have read it since then...I am very sorry that I will never have the chance to see Ray again, and I&#39;m very sorry for you and your family. When I think about this...it really hits deep with me. Me and Ray weren&#39;t around eachother as much as we used to be...its still just as surreal to me. I don&#39;t think I ever thanked you for letting us jam in your house..had it not been for that, Montage probably wouldn&#39;t have been..without it, Ray, Ben, and I would not have had such good times. Thank you. Words can&#39;t fully express emotions...I&#39;m very sorry.Peterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02482223703363191673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1243000446846423788.post-49527111265547711312010-03-05T14:01:45.891-05:002010-03-05T14:01:45.891-05:00Hi Richard,<br /><br />Beautiful words for a beautiful being. <br /><br />Tears came to my eyes reading this. God is watching over him..that is all I can say. <br /><br />Peace be with you and your family.<br /><br />Always try to remember the beautiful memories, the music he created and loved, and the food he ate, the lovely words he said to you and the hugs and kisses he gave you throughout his short life. <br /><br />I scattered my mother&#39;s ashes in Half Moon Bay, one of her favorite beaches in Northern California. A small fishing village that was home to surfers and fishing fleets. Now, whenever I breathe the salt air or swim in the clear green ocean of Florida - I think of her and in the most positive manner. My father&#39;s spirit - I celebrate whenever I hear his favorite music, eat the foods he loved or take road rips..something he loved to do. It helps so much to do this. Try to keep those positive memories alive and well - it helps so much!<br /><br /><br />Much love and empathy,<br />YvetteYvettenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1243000446846423788.post-52314150449144598142010-03-02T17:33:38.837-05:002010-03-02T17:33:38.837-05:00Hello Richard, <br /><br />I have never met you but I had the pleasure of knowing Ray. He was a great friend to my son, Patrick, here in New Jersey. He stayed over at our house many times last summer. He truly was a joy to know. My son valued his friendship deeply. The two of us have been crying on and off since we heard this sad news. Please know that your family is in our prayers. Ray will always be remembered by us. I hope that time will ease the pain and be replaced by the warm glow of Ray&#39;s loving spirit. <br />With sincere condolences, Robin FoleyRobinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15705120242651010796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1243000446846423788.post-21129627231865019352010-02-28T17:02:30.130-05:002010-02-28T17:02:30.130-05:00Richard, <br />Condolences for you and your family.
