COMMON TATOR (RAY) PASSED AWAY THIS MORNING
Posted on 03/28/2009 3:36:03 PM PDT by Lisa_from Buckeye Country
He passed peacefully around 11 am with his step son and step daughter by his side. I got the call from his step-son, but have just been able to calm myself to let all of you know. Please share your thoughts, prayers, or a favorite story of Ray.

Lisa,
For several years, I was without access to Free Republic, and so, I’m sorry to say, did not get to know Ray until the recent posts about his condition. For that, I am much poorer than you and his many friends here. He truly was a shining star, whose brightness pierced even the heaviest of clouds.
I can only wish Ray God’s peace.
And for you and all who did know and love him, I wish God’s solace. As you grieve his loss, remember that your life was made brighter by that starlight, and that through you, he will always be with us.
To: Lisa_from Buckeye Country
Lisa, the loss of Ray hurts us all, and I can only hope that that shared companionship of feelings can blunt the pain somewhat for you and others who were closest to him. He will be missed deeply, and I wish well to his friends and family.

He was a true example of American Exceptionalism. He will be missed, as I loved this well-reasoned postings!

To: Lisa_from Buckeye Country
So sorry to hear this Lisa. Tator certainly put up a valiant fight trying to beat this with a lot of loving help from you & his family.
May God give you, his family & dearest friends the strength to get through the pain you must feel in these first sad days, and may He give you the courage to open up your hearts again soon so that you can know the serene joy of beholding all the wonderful memories he’s left behind for you to cherish.
You were each blessed to have known this man who chose to live such an extraordinarily full life and to have been the ones whose own lives he chose to enrich with his fondest affections, so please allow me the honor of extending my deepest sympathy to you all.
