R.I.P Ray in the forum
In Our Prayers
Many here know Ray, especially if you have ever been to the Redwood Run. For thos who were not lucky engough to have met him, Ray was a great man, a true biker and a lover of life.
Ray served over 30 years in the U.S. Navy and somehow during that time managed to put more miles on his motorcycles each year than most will in a lifetime. He loved his trips to Sturgis & Daytona and his most favorite rally - The Redwood Run - which is where I was lucky enough to meet Ray many years back. And if spending most of his time in a submarine or on a motorcycle wasn't enough, he also had time to father a son, Travis, who is now a junior in high school.
Ray retired from the Navy as a Master Chief eleven years ago and has been enjoying life to the fullest since. I can't remember ever seeing Ray not enjoying himself. Although Ray has done some really, and I mean REALLY crazy stuff, he has always been a wonderful person who cared about everyone and would do anything for anyone, so I know there is a place saved just for him in heaven. From this point on I will no longer think of thunder as a scientific phenomenon, from this point on when I hear thunder I will think of Ray riding his Big Dog in heaven.
I love you brother and we will meet again!
