Hi Sharon,
We just got the news a few days ago about Ray. You and your family are in our prayers.
Love, Jay and Sheryl
Pastor Ray was a spiritual guide and example for me and my family. I only knew him as a child at GBC in Fremont OH but his influence is felt still to this day in my Family. My mother Mary is heartbroken for Sharon and family’s loss. Our comfort is that he is with the Lord.
