    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.

    I've been away for a while, but came on today to catch up and saw this, super sad indeed, a big loss of all of us.

    Every once in a while, when the sound hits just right, I think of his quote, "such sweet sound".
