I'm so sad about this. Uncle Raymond you were such a wonderful man, devoted husband, Papaw and father. His family was his life! He had such a wonderful sense of humor, quick wit and was always quick with a joke. You will definitely be missed. Aunt Sandy and Rusty all my love to you during this sad time.

He was my Pappaw. The best Pappaw ever. I will miss him so much. He is so loved. He was funny, and playful and loved me and my brother, his only grandkids, as much as he could. There was never a dull moment when he was around. He loved my Mammaw with everything he had. He loved motorcycles when he was younger. He used to take us on rides all the time. He loved to throw us in the pool, and play practical jokes. He made the BEST grilled cheese sandwiches. My Pappaw was a one of a kind man and my life will be a little bit more empty without him.
