    Oh wow. I know I've been away and this grieves me to learn. Ray and I would communicate via email every so often. Very sorry to hear of his passing. May he be with the LORD now. No better place to be.

    RIP, Ray. He really was a gem. I enjoyed reading his technical posts and the knowledge that he shared.
