Condolences to the family from his friend at Anthology- Edward Ortleb. I always enjoyed his sense of humor.
Sorry to hear of your father/grandfather’s passing. If I remember correctly, he had several bouts of illnesses that he faught. May he rest in peace.
I worked with Ray a bit back in the 1980’s and I loved his sense of humor; appreciation of great music; and his outlook on life. He always brought smiles to the faces of the folks around him. He was kind and generous. I’m very sorry to hear of his passing, but very glad he lived a long and prosperous life.
So,so sorry to Maggie, kids and grandkids. I worked with in the 80’s too. Love to all. Sorry for the late response. Just found out. Ray was the best.
