Raymond was a devoted husband and caring father, grandfather, brother, nephew and friend. He was a simple man who loved his family, his coffee and eating barbeque from the Skylite Inn in Ayden. Being a man tall in stature but gentle in nature, Raymond loved people and was loved in return. He also enjoyed spending time with and cruising with George Allen. Raymond lived his life with a spirit of patience, gratitude, wonder and love. He was the happiest when he was doing simple things like fishing, drinking coffee, sitting at the dinning table holding hands with Michelle or making memories with his children and grandchildren. He will surely be missed but he will forever remain in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.
