Dear Pat
Norma joins me in sending our condolences . Ray was a great friend for many years both in Bathurst and Sunshine Coast. We shared many wonderful times singing together in the TROPICAL BLEND Barbershop Quartet. Ray was both a gentleman and a great and loyal friend. I am happy to have shared some of his life with him.
