Our sympathies to Irene and her family. We haven’t known Ray for a long time since our arrival on Farincourt but he seemed to be a very good person.
Bon courage Irène. Nos pensées sont avec toi.

Oh Irene, I am sorry. I always thought Ray was such a gentle and wonderful person. I do hope his last days were as peaceful as he was gentle. My thoughts are with you. Ginette

My deepest condolences to the Krys family. If Jen is anything like her Dad, he must have been a wonderful man. Wishing you strength and peace through this hard time.

We are holding you and your family in our prayers.
Ray always joked when we walked by him when he was sitting on his porch told us to “slow down that’s too fast for me”
Our neighbourhood has lost a true gentleman and a good friend.

Irene and family, so sorry to hear about Ray’s passing. We have memories of golfing with you both in hospital tournaments where we were privileged to enjoy Ray’s patience and sense of humor. Sincere condolences.
