Ray, When I first found out I had an older half-brother I was so happy and excited but due to life and circumstances that was short-lived. I was happy to know you were such a nice, sweet and helpful person. I wish we would have had more time and things would have been different. Thank you for being in my kid’s lives and being an uncle even if it was for a short period... those memories will be cherished forever. Rest In Peace my brother ❤️

My sincere condolences to The Lara Family on your loss.  May God give you strength in the days ahead . I pray that God will be with your daughters and that God will protect them both in their life's. A child, parent and grandparents can never be replaced you only get one in life two grandparents if your lucky. Love one another and reach our to those that mean something in your life. Don't let hate, anger and anything else keep you from what should be important in your life. Ray may your soul rest in peace 


Oh Ray,
My heart is so broken.  You were a genuinely created human being.  May you rip sweet dreams.  Save me a place....All of my 💘!!!



Ray I’m so thankful that you came into my life at a point when I most needed you. Your laughter always made me smile. Thank you for loving my grandchildren and my children unconditionally. You always gave me the courage to strive for greatness and I will forever be grateful . Now that your in heaven please watch over your family.    

               Love Jewels ❤️
