Ray I need to move on from this point forward,it's been a year and I have fallen in Love with a wonderful man. I hope you approve but I guess if I am happy it doesn't much matter and I cannot ever remember being so totally in Love before,,not even with Raph but you know I loved that man a lot..but this is so different it's easy I don't have to force myself to say I Love you to him at all I don't have to think about it it is just there...and I do believe we can have a great life together...

 He has a 18 yr old son, who seems to be a wonderful boy, he wants to be a lawyer and is starting college this year...Roland has promised me he will be a very good Son and I am sure he will be...I will write you again when I know when we will be getting Married but it should be soon...

Rose      Take care of yourself and my sister in law please

Ray was in the US Navy for Ten years than went on to the USAF for the next almost 22 ears which he totaly enjoyed. He could tell some real sories about being in the different places he served..Never had a bad saying about that time either he Loved it.
