They often talked about the latest new car Scott had bought.
Ray is loved and dearly missed by his children: Jeffrey Klingfuss, Jody Klingfuss, and “Son” (former exchange student), Jan (Danny) Swiers; Grandson, Scott Adams; Granddogs: Diesel and Phoenix; and other loving relatives and friends.
Raymond is reunited in Heaven with his beloved Gail and daughter, Jill Adams.
