Ray married the love of his life Carole Sue (Crabill) on August 22, 1992 (29 years) who he met in AA. He was a member of AA for 36 years and loved helping others. He enjoyed telling his life adventures before AA and how it saved his life. He and Carole loved to travel. They traveled to Maui every year and loved to take cruises to tropical destinations. He loved the beach and the sun, as he was the happiest as long as he was near water. He had to be tan year round and if the tan started to fade a new trip was in the works! When he wasn’t in the sun or traveling Ray enjoyed betting on football games or playing table games in the casino’s.
