My Tears, Deep Sadness, Grief and Heartfelt Prayers are with you all, Wanda, Lance, Jenny, Ellie, Micah and Anna.
Each of you, and even those at Clearlake are part of his legacy, very much treasured by him and by Susie as well.
As you faithfully serve and glorify the Lord, you bring honor to these who have invested a part of themselves within you.
And of course you fill their souls with joy more than you can ever imagine, as they watch you faithfully "run with patience the race that is set before you."
Looking, along with you, for that blessed hope and the glorious appearing of our Saviour, Jesus Christ the Lord.

I will miss you my dear cousin...but one day I will see you in heaven..:)
Ray was, and still is, an inspiration to me. We had some great times together. Some of the good times include watching him play the piano in elementary school, learning to sing tenor with him in the Nowata church choir, going to Youth Rallies, and singing in a gospel quartet contest with him at OSU (go POKES).
Wanda, thanks for walking with him through this. I can imagine Ray's mansion "way up" on that hillside.
Lance and family, you are his joy. I think his wish is for you to continue your focus on serving the Lord.
I am sorry I can't be there to see you.

So long my dear friend, cousin, and brother in Christ. I can't hear the song, "More," without thinking of being in your first wedding when you sang that to Susie. You have been such a blessing to me and our entire family. Due to our faith in Christ, I will one day see you in heaven.

Lance, sorry for your recent loss, glad you are doing well!
My husband Sherman and I were able to attend the funeral service of our dear beloved brother Ray. He was not only my twin in the flesh, but my brother-in-Christ as well. Ray had his part by having made a short video to be played for those attending. He wanted to have one last word of testimony of Jesus Christ and the hope of Eternal Life. Very moving. The songs he chose which his wonderful son Lance sang inspired our hearts, but the song that spoke to his sisters and me was the final one entitled Happy Trails to You. Roy Rogers was a Saturday morning show that our parents allowed us to see. Through our tears we quietly joined the couple who sang it almost like Roy and Dale. Sweet memories will not be easily forgotten.
Hi, I knew Ray during a not so good time in his life in 1994. He was a good man. After I got to know him, I always thought I'd like to be as good a man as he was.
Ray had a profound impact on my life in the year that we spent together. To this day I still tell people some of the wisdom he shared with me and I have applied that wisdom to my own life.
It's very sad that Ray is gone...the world is not as good of a place now.
