He was a happy, caring person, always willing to help others, worked at the Senior Center, took people to the food pantry every month. With out him most of these people wouldn’t have had any food. He enjoyed helping out. He cared for his wife for years, kind and caring, he did everything he could to make her smile. He will be missed, with his warm smile and always glad to talk to everyone.
My sincere condolences to the Bernal family.
Ray will be missed immensely. A real polite, respectful, stand-up kinda guy and super great Pictionary pal. The very first friend/neighbor I made once I landed in Lakewood subdivision and now are the first to say goodbye. My heart is deeply saddened, a loss that has broken my heart.
RIP Ray and brush up on those awesome Pictionary skills. I hope we can have many more kick butt games once I arrive.
