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.

Eternal rest grant unto Ray, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. Lisa, I prayed for Ray last time, so I remember a bit of your story. I'm so very sorry, and can only imagine what you're going through. I pray that Jesus will hold you close to His Merciful Heart, and see you through.
My condolences to his family. I'll keep you all in my prayers.
(((Lisa))) <-- a virtual hug

Lisa I hope you are taking care of yourself.
Today I went and reread the Freeper Memorial Wall.
I can only imagine the welcome he got from those who proceeded him to eternity.
I reread so many of CT’s posts. I don’t think it would be silly to call the man a visionary in the likes of Ben Franklin. I think Congressman Billy Bob alluded to that in a prior post.
We are all so much luckier for having known a man like CT, even from afar.

Very very sad ping indeed. Only consolation is that he’s finally found peace from the agony he endured at the end. Great loss for all those who enjoyed his posts these many years.

I'm sorry to hear this. Ray was one of the best.
I always looked forward to reading a post by the Common Tator.
Thanks for everything you did around here, Ray.
