So sorry to hear of your loss. Terry & I just heard about it today. You are in our prayers.
I had the great pleasure and honor of knowing Ray, he was the best person I have ever been blessed to meet in my lifetime. I will always remember snapping beans with Ray he will be missed greatly. I can't even begin to explain the huge impact he had on me during the short time we shared. My deepest condolences go out to his family.
Dear Mary Anne, Tony, Charmin, Kim and Alice,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all in your loss. I too share Angela's comments about Ray's infectious laugh and his wide-eyed expressions in his zest for everything he did. He was very much missed when he retired from Rural Development and we know he was off pursing his new goals in the years following. You were all so very dear to him and I know he loved you all so much. I know you'll keep his memory alive in your life. I'm sure he and Steven Myers are having some great conversations up in the clouds. Hugs, Regina & Rick Coleman
I had the privilege of working with Ray for many years at USDA. He was not only a wonderful supervisor, but a wonderful person. I will always remember his jolly laugh, even my family remembers that from when they met him.
Thank you for all the group trips and projects we worked on. You could always justify getting the team on the road. You made everyone laugh and smile around you, and there was always a geography lesson involved.
We will miss you Ray. I'm glad our team still got together over the years. Thank you for being such a great person and for bringing so much joy to the workplace and to our lives.
To the family, we are earnestly keeping you in our hearts and prayers.
With deepest sympathy,
Angela Hall
Ray had the most positive affect on everyone he met. His infectious joy for life and his wisdom allowed me to pursue dreams I never thought possible. His body may be gone but his spirit will always be with us. Thank you, Blazier family, for sharing this wonderful man with us.
May everyone find comfort in knowing that Ray is in a better place and when you see him again it will be in a house that God built for him. He is home now and he's OK.
