Ray and I both attended Burks Falls and District (later M.A. Wittick) Public School, and we were classmates in the 5th and 7th grades. It was a thrill to re-connect with him via Facebook and Messenger last year and recall old times and friends we had in common so long ago. He will be greatly missed by friends and family.
