I am really going to miss my good friend. I feel like there is a big part of my life missing.
Ray was also the best drummer I ever played with. There was nobody like him, when it came to the drums. He was a real power house. I think he is probably up in heaven now playing for the LORD. I hope I can see him again some day. He was a very special person in my life and will be deeply missed. It's going to take me a while to get over this one.
GOD bless Ray.

I know that someday each of us will see you again in Heaven. I want you to be at peace and know that your Son and Grandbabies are going to be just fine;
I know you already know that because I feel your presence still daily. Thank you for watching out for your family. Thank you for always loving and caring for all of us the best way you knew how.
I can honestly say that you were the Dad I was supposed to have because long ago God already knew that our paths were set and destined to be. I really did get the Father figure and bond that I have always wanted. Thank you for staying here as long as you did. I know why you did that even if you were in pain. I love you Dad.
Love Always,
Your Son's Wife - Angela

You called me a million times a day to ask me questions about what I was doing and what I thought about different things. I have never answered the phone so many times realizing that it didn't matter what was going on in the background, you didn't care, you just wanted to talk and I enjoyed being the person on the other end of the phone. To me that is priceless and God blessed me each day my phone rang.
If I could talk to you one last time....
I would tell you the answer to your question of, "What is everyone going to do when I die?"
Well everyone is exactly who they were before, during and after your presence in our lives except, it had an impact on each of us differently. Interacting with you is something that you don't walk away from unchanged. You were an awesome person. You touched each of our hearts differently and I can tell you this much, a lot of people love you and miss you!

If I could talk to you one last time...
I would tell you that I promise to cherish your Son for the rest of my life. I am absolutely in love with him and will forever be by his side until the day I die and beyond.
If I could talk to you one last time...
I would tell you that you gave me something so special everyday I spent talking on the phone with you, on car rides and in Grandma's house; You gave me a father-daughter relationship that I thought I would never ever have.
I would tell you "Thank-you" for eventually excepting me as your son's wife and making it known that I was part of your family.
If I could talk to you one last time...
I would tell you Thank-you for always making the effort. You were always trying and you cared just enough to try and understand who I am.

I would remind you of the times you would catch me staring at you and you didn't know why because I was in awe. You gave me the feeling of looking into the past. The way certain characteristics and traits were passed down from you to your Son is amazing to me. It made my heart happy to hang out with you when I missed Raymond (Jr.) with all of my heart and soul.
If I could talk to you one last time...
I would remind you that you are an amazing person for the simple fact that you are the Father of my Husband, my Best friend and Soul mate.
If I could talk to you one last time...
I would tell you that I realized God gave me the answer to my question that we were talking about in the car on our way back from Woodland. :)
I also want you to know that I know God wasn't ignoring you. He was giving you an answer that you already knew.

Dear Papa Ray, Dad,
I would tell you how thankful that I am to have met you and spent the time I was able to spend with you.
If I could talk to you one last time...
I would tell you again, how you were the Dad I was supposed to have.
I will always remember the way I would laugh when you would get upset. Haha!
You would ask me why I was laughing and I would tell you that, that is just me.
I would tell you that I learned how to laugh at this life instead of crying. Eventually you excepted that characteristic of me and gave me the nickname "giggles."
If I could talk to you one last time...
I would tell you that I am blessed to have been given the opportunity to learn from you.
You would teach me how simple things can really be in life and how complicated everyone else makes them out to be.
I would tell you that I appreciate the memories that you shared with me and will hold them in my heart forever.

Ray was a very loving man. Always funny and full of surprises!
There wasn't much he couldn't do or figure out how to solve!
Life itself was his grandstand!
He was a talented musician, high-roller, loved fantasy football, the K-Derby, lived a western lifestyle, fishing, camping, water skiing, was a great engine mechanic, Three-Stooges fan and a proud and happy father and grandpa "Papa Ray".
For 30 yrs he was a dedicated Crane Operating Engineer.
I love you and our children Papa! Part of me is in Heaven with you.
Ray's spirit has risen to be home and saved with Jesus.
Surviving mother Lucille Arnett, wife Sharon, son Ray Jr and grandchildren Andrew, Angelica, Roselee and Christopher. Late daughter Angela and his first wife Marcie.
Additional family of Ray's are his late father William Arnett, brother Steven, sister Darlene, and surviving brothers Ronald, Loren and sister Patricia; nieces and nephews.
Ray touched many, many lives!
A life celebration will be soon. We miss you!

I have known Ray for 25+ years. I have seen many sides of him and have been a friend through all of them never to judge him but always was a ear to talk to and listen what he had to say.
As a fellow brother in local 302 he always believed in his local and stood tall also one of the best Tower crane operators I know. He has been a mentor and has trained many guys in the seat now to be great operators also.
Through it all I must say that over the last years of his life he really put his best foot forward and turned it for the better. I was able to attend his wedding and meet his wife Sharon. I was happy to know that she mad a good positive influence in his life and he was able to relocate and spend some Quality time with grandchildren family and friends. He will be missed he always made me laugh with his sence of humor when we talked.
I was happy to know he new the Lord and was recently baptized. God bless you Ray love you my brother and will miss you dearly.

Raymond was a true Union Brother. Although he told me never to tell anyone, Raymond taught me everything about running tower cranes. He was so fun to work with. You really had to know him to enjoy how he presented his humor. Raymond you are missed deeply. Your presence will always be around Seattle construction sites.
