I was Rays best friend on the USS KISKA. We had some incredible times having lots of fun but what I remember most is Ray telling me " Ray! Work smarter not harder!" ( I'm also Ray) With that he took the wrench out of my hand and replaced it with a hammer. We worked hard in the heat as boiler technicians but we managed to have a good time. I will miss his sense of humor and live and let live lifestyle. I miss you old friend and I pray to see you again, one eternity.
