Sherri #10 from: Dave & Robin Herzog West Liberty, Ohio Sun, Apr 29, 2018 at 7:55 AM I was saddened to hear of the loss of your father. I remember Ray from our home town of Richwood growing up but more importantly working with him at Honda. He was a very funny, warm and thoughtful man. He was loving family man and I know he loved his children and grandchildren very much. He always had a funny joke to tell me and always stopped to take the time to say hello to a fellow associate. Sadly missed but warm memories of a wonderful man and also a veteran. God bless you all. #11 from: Jason and Jennifer Rice Greencamp Sun, Apr 29, 2018 at 1:33 PM Terry and family sorry for your loss you are in our prayers #12 from: Debbie green Security Mon, Apr 30, 2018 at 7:18 AM So sorry for the loss of Ray.
