I only knew you for a short time,
From a Marine friend, |
Ray, we were friends in Dominguez High in Compton, California. You were a great friend. After I joined the Army I saw in the paper that you were killed in action. I will miss you old friend, but never forget you and the sacrifice you made in the name of freedom. "Semper Fi!" Marine, you were a good Marine.
From a high school friend, |
I knew and served with Musick and the others at CAP 2-4-3, and was with them on 20 August 1968.
From a friend and fellow Marine, |
I knew you at Dominguez High School. You were always very sweet to me and once fixed my broken-down bike. I was saddened many years ago when I heard of your death. Thank you for your sacrifice. You are not forgotten.
From a friend, |
Ray was a varsity football teammate and a good friend.
