Although Raymond had many interests throughout his life, most notably, he loved gardening, boating, water skiing, snow skiing with the Skiwi club, and was an avid dancer. As is the case for so many people, Raymond loved his sweets. Raymond was quite the social butterfly. He enjoyed chatting over a cup of coffee or sharing a meal or drinks with his friends. Although he loved his Kentucky Fried Chicken nothing could ever beat his mother's chicken soup. Raymond was a devout Catholic and found great comfort in praying the Rosary. To his friends and family he was affectionately known as St. Francis because of his love for animals.
