From Susan: "Richard Ray was a loyal friend to many classmates and had the chance to see them at the last multi-year reunion at Twain Harte Golf Club. I'll never forget the smile on his face as he was trying to get his wife to dance with him. Of course, she did and he looked like he was John Travolta and free of cancer. Thank you for putting this together to allow all of us to share some good times once again. "
Susan, thank you for what you shared about Richard. He was one of my favorite friends all during high school. He always made me laugh and smile. When I last saw him at the reunion with his beautiful wife, my conversation with the two of them was the highlight of my night. He was an inspiration and blessing to all who knew him. I will always remember him with love and gratitude for being my friend. Cathy Turner (Rohrs)

P.S....... My son is an aviator in the Navy stationed at NAS Lemoore.... flies the F/A 18 Super Hornet. Richard would have enjoyed hearing about him.
