I came across this announcement today on the web and had no idea Ray had passed away Nov 2015. My heart sank seeing this. I hired Ray at Quadrad Chemicals as an Equipment Specialist and had the pleasure of working with Ray for many years. He was always so competent and reliable at his work. Ray was one of the most genuine, gentle, nice people I ever met. Ray was a wonderful soul and god bless him.

Serge & Danielle, Our sinceres condolences. Thinking of you and your family at this time. Chantal & Dean Charette

Serge, Danielle and family……….. It is with deep sorrow and shock to hear of Raynald’s passing away. My teaching years at KLCVI were so rewarding in having students like Serge, Ray and Colin. I remember various instances for each one of them. Ray’s favorite was the use of the word ‘persevering’ which he directed to me on my approach to check and assist his work…… “It’s OK sir, I’m persevering”…… Our thoughts and prayers are with you…….. Sid (Myrta) Hamden

It was with great sadness that we learned of the passing of Raynald. Ray had started his employment with us in the role of Calibration Technician only a few weeks ago. He was proving himself as a very valuable member of our team and brought to us a unique skill set. We saw a great career path for him and it is sad that he passed away at such a young age. Our thoughts are with Ray and his family at this difficult time. Gary Collins, President, Conflow Technologies Inc.

I was so sorry to hear about Ray’s passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you Joel and all of your family.

Ray’s legacy of kindness, genuineness and sincerity will remain with me and I know so many others too. Please accept my most sincere condolences as well as my thoughts and prayers. With much love Helene

I was baby-sitting Serge, Lyne & Colin the night that Raynald was born. Cannot believe that he has left this world so soon. Condoléances à toute la famille pour cette grande perte.

Daniel and Serge so sorry for your loss thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time.

Our sincere condolence on the passing of your brother. I had the privilege of working with Ray at Siemens and invited him to join the Knights of Columbus at St. Agnes. Ray loved to fish and we found out he hated cats when he came over for the first time…never seen a person so allergic to a little kitty. Even when Ray moved away (thank goodness for social media) we were able to keep in touch and when Ray was in the area he always made time to stop in and visit the old gang. Ray will always be in our hearts and memories will live on forever…until we meet again.

Nos sinceres sympathies a toute la famille… Nos pensees sont avec vous en ce temps difficile.

He never hesitated to make you laugh and offer a helping hand. During this difficult time, Rays spirit and memory will linger with his family and friends. Those we love do not go away, they walk beside us every day unseen, unheard but always near, still loved, still missed and very dear.
