I was so shocked by Ray's passing. You have to understand that I just found this out and its 2004! Though I never got the chance to meet him, I had a huge crush on him. I taped Badland's videos and literally wore them out using the rewind button. I'm still sitting here with my mouth open in shock that he's gone. I'm glad to read positive things about him. He sounded like a great guy. He sure was the most gorgeous man that ever walked the face of the earth.

I want to thank his friends and family for getting on here and letting his fans know a little more about him.

RIP Ray
