My deepest sympathy. Raymond was one of big cousins. He was a cool person only new by phone not in person. But he was planing to come down and visiting his family in La Pryor Tx. He is in a better place now and he is watching over us.. & I will always remember the night he called to tell me that he was going to pick me up when we live 800 & something miles away & when he told me look outside cause he was out side but no one was there.. You will be missed. <3 Deyanira Rios
