 Bless you! Thom Stone

Lisa I am so very sorry for your loss.  I loved your dad.  You were very lucky to have a good, kind, funny and caring man as your father.  He was a man of character and charm.  I can just picture Gloria and you dad enjoying a cocktail at sunset.  You will be in my prayers.  Love you.

Lisa and Ed I am greatly saddened by the loss of such a dear man, father, gentleman and sweet, sweet person. I loved your dad very much, he was like an uncle to me. I loved hanging out with "Mr. Ray" when I would pop in to visit and you might be riding your horse. He told me he would watch me climb the trees I don't remember that. He was such a sweet, gentle man. I never heard him say a disparaging remark about anyone or anything. I never heard him curse or even saw him angry. I can truly say I have never personally know a nicer man. He was a very unique individual. He  had such a calm demeanor and I always felt safe and comfortable in his presence. He had dignity and grace and He lived such a wonderful life. He lived the kind of life most people only dream about. He was successful and he got to travel with his family to practically every country in the world, he always had a beautiful home and loving wife, he was handsome, yet he didn't seem to know it; and was blessed with a beautiful inside and out, intelligent and super friendly daughter and then to top it off  he acquired the son he never had had through  Lisa's marriage to Edward. He loved Lisa and Ed very deeply. I will miss Ted so much and I know your heart is very saddened by this loss of such a wonderful man. I feel fortunate and a better a person for having the privilege and blessing of having known "Mr Ray, for 43 years. I loved him like he was part of  my own family. Lisa and Ed my heart goes out to you and I will always think good, happy thoughts when I think of your Dad and remember his beautiful smile and how he was such a sweet, sweet man. I love you both and I am very saddened and heartbroken for your loss. May God's presence bless you and comfort you and all your family during this time and I know you feel so richly blessed to have had such a special man as your father and that he lived such a long, full life. Love you both Lisa and Ed Ensley.

Sincerely,
Joe, Sava, Joey, Max, & Gianna Tirabassi
