Very saddened to hear of Ray’s passing. I had the privilege of knowing Ray through the Moe RSL as its President and as a Vietnam Veteran. As a younger veteran, Ray always made me feel genuinely welcome and part of the RSL community. I will remember his warmth, kindness and service to veterans. My sincere condolences to Pauline, Ray’s family and friends. Rest in peace, Ray.

RIP Watto ( A true gentleman (An Ear too the Many always there too the many) Gone but not forgotten
