I send my deepest condolences to the family. God is aware of the tears you shed. Psalm 56:8 says: "Do put my tears in your skin bottle. Are they not in your book?" He will soon do what is promised at Acts 24:15, which promises us of the resurrection of our loved ones. May that comfort you along with the good and fine memories you have.

Poppa I will always remember summer's at Goerge's. Sleeping in the hammock and the full supply of pop in the fridge that shocked you if your feet were wet. Waiting on the dock for you, my dad and uncle Floyd to return from fishing. When you reach heaven give Grandma a kiss and hug, sadly now you'll both be missed. Forever in our hearts Julie, Rick, Jordan, Jessie Ray and Payton.

We would like to pass on our deepest sympathy to all on the passing of Uncle Ray. Lynne and I spent Monday night talking, thinking, and remembering. It was not difficult to pass the evening coming up with some real good things to discuss. A tribute in itself as we are along way away and most things are from a long time ago. We remember most how he could find a little humour in most things and left us feeling better that he had taken time to visit with us. From a long distance, he will be missed.

Poppa - Thanks for the memories as they will be treasured for a lifetime. You always made us laugh and put a smile on our faces when telling stories. McKenzie and Michael were very fortunate to have spent as much time as they did with you and always looked forward to our visits. It is sad and unfair that life ends so suddenly but the times we shared along with the memories will never end. Love Mick, Laurie, McKenzie and Michael

Poppa - We love the time spent together and the fun we had on your beach. You always made sure it was ready for us when we came to visit and as you can see we enjoyed the water at "sunny beach". Love McKenzie and Michael

Papa you were a great man. You made us laugh everytime we seen you. My favorite memory is seeing you after Dads hockey game and you would always put your cold hands on the back of my neck and laugh. I will miss you

Story shared: Morning walks

For many years I would meet Ray and Missy on my early morning walks, somewhere between his house and Robert Kivell's. We would watch Missy (with her nose to the ground and sniffing) running back and forth between the cottages. If any dogs were out Ray would give them and Missy a dog biscuit. Ray always had lots of stories to tell of his experiences with the school board. Will miss you Ray on my morning walks.

Ray was a wonderful man and an exceptional head caretaker at East York Collegiate. On my first day at EYCI, Ray welcomed me. My father had known Ray for many years and spoke very highly of him. Ray would often drop by my classroom to say hi, share a joke or ask if there were any caretaking requests. Everyone loved Ray. He was always optimistic and had no fear of hard work. My condolences to his family and friends. I will never forget Ray's kindness and the positive impact he had on East York Collegiate staff and students.

Condolence From Chrissy (Andrews), Steve and Bennett Whitehorne

To the family: So sorry for your lose. May you find comfort from your fond memories. The Bible gives us comfort when it assures us that soon all causes of suffering will end and mankind can enjoy life forever in perfect health. (Pslams 37:11,29; Revelation 21:3,4; John 17:3) We can even be reunited with our lost loved ones. (John 5:28,29) Please accept my sincere heartfelt condolences.

God Bless you and yours. We'll miss Ray...his smile, his soft voice, his morning walks with "Missy", his community updates, his drives along Sturgeon Glen with the proud Canadian flag blowing in the wind. Our whole family at 78 Sturgeon Glen were proud and fortunate to have had the opportunity to share time with him in this life. We knew him as a concerned man who enjoyed his retirement years after East York C.I. and the wonderful years at the lake with Flo. We always looked forward to seeing him... he will always be in our hearts.

Ray and Flo were one of the first couples I met when I moved here 6 years ago. Ray was the best bowler on my team then the bowling alley burned down. I look back with fond memories of the pleasant hours spent laughing and carrying on with Ray and Betty after the two couples had been out celebrsting a birthday, then came back to watch the sunset on my deck. The two 'Rays' also came over to repair my broken pull out couch that I was sure I would have to throw out but it's still going strong. This was Ray always ready and able to help, always ready with a good joke, always ready with a smile and a hug. My friends and I now bowl in Bobcaygeon but go to the Captain's Table afterwards for dinner. Every Friday, Flo and Ray had already beat us to there and were enjoying their luscious desserts when we arrived. I will truly miss Ray and my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family, Flo.

For You Ray My condolenses to your family. I will always remember how you treated me with kindness and understanding when I was a student at East York CI playing hockey for the high school team. I am now the head caretaker at East York filling the position you held for so long but will never be able to fill your shoes. I will always be thankful for you in helping me to get a job with the board of education. The caretaking staff here at East York CI will always remember you.
