Tio Ray, 
I still can't believe you are gone.  My heart aches but I am trying to find comfort in all the memories you shared with the family. As I read the funny stories that family and friends have shared, I can't help but laugh because that was so you! I will miss you and every time I see Irma, the Castillo family, Cita and her kids they will remind me of you and all the love you gave to everyone. I love you and will always remain in my heart!!

Ray I am so glad I had the opportunity to be your friend. You always made everyone laugh,you where the life of the party. I'm going to miss those text messages during football season saying "go broncos" and during basketball season saying " go Duke" you will truly be missed.  May you rest in peace.

Ray, thank you for being the kind and generous man you were and helping my sister,(Cris)in her time of need. I am truly glad to have met you and sorry to see you leave so soon. My deepest condolences to Cita and the family. May the many memories they shared with you help during this time.You were one in a million.

I love you Uncle Ray! My memories of you are the best and I will never forget the way you made me laugh. I've had a lot of good times with you and I will miss that so much. I know that you're with my grandma now and all the others we've lost and that gives me comfort. I know you are finally getting the rest you deserve. Give my grandma lots of love from me. See you in the next ❤

Ray... I've known you almost all my life. You were such a big part of our life. You taught Frankie how to shave, and how to drive, and how to eat! You were always supportive in all we did. I love you so much and I am so very lucky to have had you in my life. I have worn my class ring everyday for the last 16 years, not to show it off; I wear it because it was a gift from you and means so much to me.  You hold a very special place in my heart you truly were a second Dad to me. From my kindergarten suspension to my Wedding Day, after all , you did introduce me to my husband. Thank you for being in my life.Your sense of humor, your kindness, and your smile(with and without teeth) will be missed!!! My heart hurts, You left us too soon, but you are free now... I  can honestly say you played a big role in my career path and the success I have had...  Love you......RIP Ray
My prayers are with you Irma, Cita, and family. ..He was a great man!
