Thinking of you and the family, but wanted to let you know that Ray once took me to a store when I was a kid and bought me my first Mountain Dew. Forever, I will think of him when I drink one. Take care of yourselves.

Polly, I will talk to you in person soon but wanted to add my two cents here in print. We live on through our memories and forever (and always in the past) I will remember Ray whenever I drink a Mountain Dew. It is a fond memory of mine from my childhood when Ray bought me my first one and I can't drink one without thinking about it. Take care of yourself. Terry
