I've been Gina's friend since Jr. High.... So many memories of hanging at the Johnstown house!
Raymond would be working in his garden, or cleaning fish - I ate VERY well every time I was over! (I think that's why I spent more time at their house than my parents back then! Lol)
He truly was a great man and a great dad and grandpap too!!
He will be missed by all! ❤️
I loved fishing with uncle Ray. He taught me about gardening and canning. He made the best jerky! He told some funny jokes 😃 But my favorite memory of him was when he was teaching me how to shoot a pellet gun.
I don't exactly remember how old I was, Only that I was a little girl over at my grandma's house for Easter. It was time for the egg hunt and Uncle Raymond was standing under a tree looking at me and then looking up at an Easter egg that was hidden in the tree so I run over there. He picks me up and puts me on his shoulders so I can grab that Easter egg. Uncle Ray was such a gentle man.
I have lots of memories going over to my aunts and Uncle's house to stay the night with my cousin Gina, everyone sitting around the table visiting, eating tons of food, canning vegetables, listen to the country music. He's going to be missed. ❤️ love you Uncle Ray!
In loving memory of my grandpa, who was more than just a grandfather to me, he was a friend and a teacher. Some of my most cherished memories are the times we spent together by the water, fishing. You used to take me to the gas station and get me donuts everytime before we got on the water. Those moments were more than just about catching fish, they were about the stories you shared, the lessons you taught, and the bond we built. Staying the night at your house was also always an adventure I looked forward to. Your home was a place of fun and comfort, where I felt truly at ease. You had a way of making everything special, whether it was sitting at the table and watching westerns or weeding the garden. The nights I spent at your house and the fishing trips are memories I will hold forever. Even though you are no longer with us, the lessons you taught and the love you gave will stay with me always. I miss you deeply, but I find comfort in knowing that you are watching over us. Thank you for the time we had together, for the love you gave, and for being the best grandpa a person could ask for. I'm so glad you got to meet Braxton before you passed, you will be forever missed and forever loved.
