From all the employees of Wagler Machine , Ray will be missed greatly . His visits to the shop often included old tools and catalogue's from Sears and Roebuck from his youth . They were special history lessons always shared with smiles and excitement . Cant forget the occasional ice cream !

To Ray's Family, I want to offer my sincere condolences to you all. As you know, Ray and Shirley were patients of mine for many years. I truly enjoyed caring for them, and I enjoyed many colorful conversations with the two them over the past 20 years. As I reflected on my relationship with them yesterday, I had many fond memories, and I enjoyed a few laughs and tears as I recalled the humerous banter that we shared. I know that you all will miss your Dad/Grandfather. I pray for your healing and for many humerously pleasant memories to overshadow the grief. Dr Skip
