Thank you to Dr. Zaidi, Dr. Moore and Dr. Henin for their treatment and care over the past few years. A heartfelt thank you to Dr. Jason Hosain for your dedication, care, humor and compassion, especially through this difficult journey.
Much gratitude and thanks to Chris and Charlene Baron and Lionel and Natalie Langlois for the many trips to chemo, the baking and Lionel’s chicken soup.
It was Ray's wish that no service be held at this time.
