The family is planning a “Celebration of his life” to be held at Ray’s church, Portage United Church of Christ, 2731 W Milham Ave, Portage, MI, on Sunday, September 15th at 12:30 p.m. It was Ray’s wish that in his memory his family and friends would perform a random act of kindness - today and every day. Memorial contributions may be made to Animals Best Friend, c/o of the funeral home.
