  13. As another day has come again,

    And as time moves surely on,
    For even with my heavy heart,

    We know that we have been blessed to have been one who’s life he touched.
    And though someday the grief may fade,

    His mark will live on in our hearts; He planted all the good things that gave our lives their start, he turned us to the sunshine and encouraged us to dream.
    May his presence not fade,
    For the days, weeks and months ahead.
    We will hold your legacy.
    Thank you Ray for the lives we live.
    We love you.
