Remembrances       to #1 from: Harley Hoover Marion, Ohio hwhoover@aol.com Sun, Oct 3, 2021 at 8:10 PM I just saw that Ray died.  My condolences to the family.  Ray hired me as a supply tech way back 1994 at MedCenter.  I was  going through a divorce and needed a good job.  I came to the job through Adia temporary services.  Ray liked my job performance and hired me away from Adia…. Thank you Ray!. !   I forget when he retired, but was sad to see him leave.  He was always fair and honest with the team and highly respected.  I wish we could have seen more of him after he retired, but not to be.  I was hoping he would have been at my retirement party in 2019, but he probably didn’t get the word.  Rest In Peace, Ray…you were a good man.
