I am sad to hear of Ray's passing. He and I worked together in Omaha in the 70's. He was a customer of mine when I was with Miller Bros. Plumbing of Omaha. He was a good friend.

I worked with Ray in 1968 - 1970 at C. G. Smith Construction company in Papillion. I was the first Sales person for C.G. Smith and Ray was in construction of new homes. I truly respected Ray - he was very easy to get along with and helpful in explaining construction details to me. Sorry to hear we lost a great person. However, Doug Bergren, Ted Madi & Ken Olsen all were in construction there too and they have since passed away, so I know they are in Heaven building some type of new home for all of us.

Our "Uncle Ray" was a great guy. He always welcomed us with a big bear hug. He had lots of stories to share with us all the time and we enjoyed our times together. We will miss him, his emails, his laughter, and his stories.
