So sorry for your loss but and want to express my love to all of you at this time. Thankful for the faithfulness of all. Love you!
Raymond was a sweet, caring, and affable man. We shared many laughs (especially when he lost so many sets of teeth). He supported me after my husband passed away and he was so proud when I told him I had returned to the Church.
He was a dear friend and I will miss him. May he rest in peace.
