Dearest Rose and Family,
You have our deepest sympathy. Be assured you are in our thoughts and prayers at this sad time. We loved our cousin Raymond. He was very family oriented, loving all his family and relatives. When he came to Glace Bay he always visited mom and aunt Mercedes and all his cousins. We so enjoyed his visits and his humorous stories when he was reminiscing about the old times. He has left a big void in our lives. We are going to miss his phone calls and visits. He was a kind and loving person and will be sorely missed by all. Take care and God bless you all. Love, Annette (Parsons) Smith and Genevieve Parsons. Glace Bay
