Ray was my friend for many years. From the early seventies until the nineties we worked together in the telecommunication industry. I held him in high regard and had great respect for his knowledge and how he worked with people. Everybody liked Ray. We both retired from Sprint Corporation in 1993.
Ray was a driving force in helping to build Outsource, Inc. to the Company it is today. His knowledge, skill and ability to achieve a desired goal was tremendous. Everybody who worked with Ray admired and respected him. At Outsource, we all loved him. And he loved the people at Outsource. After many years at Outsource he began to speak of retirement and we would find novel ways to keep him. Finally, he said, "that's it, don't talk to me anymore I am retiring." And so he left the Company, but not our hearts. He will be missed always.
