Ray, Your Dad was one of the coolest and most easy-going people I ever met. Whenever I saw him, he was always smiling and making light of something. He was fun to be around and I always enjoyed being in his company. I never saw that man grimace, frown or act unhappy. They say you can't pick your relatives, but if you somehow managed to choose your Dad, you chose well.
My sincerest condolences to all the family.
