Jennifer and family,I am sorry for your loss. Your dad was my mentor when I was right out of college and working at IDEM over 20 years ago. I can remember following his little car (his traveling office) all over Southern Indiana visiting wood furniture manufacturers. He was a patient teacher who was trusted and liked by IDEM and businesses alike. I was lucky to get to learn from him.

Thank you Ray and Donna for the many, many loving, fun-filled adventures and deeply spiritual experiences that you (and the Mattinglys) created, embraced and shared at La Serena. You, Ray, were a man of great integrity...always seeking Truth. Peace awnd Love, Nina McCoy

He was a very good Grandpa in my life. I liked playing with his cane.

Peace of mind is a call away. We're here when you need us most.

Dad- I love you! I miss you and I'm glad you are at peace.

Jennifer
