    Ray.
    My husband of 28 years, we met when I was 15 years old. It was love at first sight. Many thought we married too young, but we proved them wrong. We went on to have three beautiful children, which led to 2 wonderful grandchildren. We had our hard times, but when our son, Ryan, passed it brought us closer again. You were always my best friend and when we spoke 3 days before you left. You seemed so happy with potential opportunities and new starts. I don’t know what happened between that day and the day you left, but I will keep looking for answers until we meet and you, I and the kids can be a family again.
    You and Ryan keep an eye on us to keep Raymond, Brett, and I strong while you two are sitting in your lawn chairs next to the bonfire waiting for the next one coming to the party.
    Ray, you are my one and only from now until eternity.
    I will love you forever and always.
    Your wife,
    Tonya

    To the entire Smith Family my condolences goes out to all of you I know he will be missed but he has gone to a better place greater than we can ever imagine may God bless each and everyone of you.R.I.P RAY RAY

    Thank you for your friendship and your understanding. When we first met, I trained you on the Beta Raven. We worked together for many years side by side. We used to drive Scott Smallwood absolutely nuts. And I will never forget your love for Home Improvement (the TV show). All the comical grunts and groans that made my day much easier to take. Mike Lustgarden must have thought we were crazy. But we always got the job done and on time even if we had to kick Lewis Brooks right in the butt. You will always be my friend and me and my family will pray for you. Rest easy my good friend. Patrick Murphy and Family.
