Thank you so much for posting this. I actually knew Ray when he played with Rondinelli, in New York. I was just listening to the CD today and it made me think of him. I have SO many fond memories of your son, always happy and upbeat. I'll never forget a birthday that I had, and I went to the rehearsal studio and I walk in and Ray starts singing Happy Birthday (the best "Happy Birthday" I've heard to date!) Although I was in his company only a total of about 10 times, he made a huge impact on my life, and I was devastated when I heard he was sick, and even more so when he passed. He truly left a mark on my life and the lives of many. You should be very proud. I'd love to hear back from you!
