Ray's Story
College was curious, as I majored in math and music, much to my father's dismay.
A year in Europe, working as a French waiter and traveling, changed by world view (a bit!!!).

But there's more! In 1999, at the age of 48, the twins were born - Carolyn and Genevieve!! As of this writing in 2010, they are almost 11 and totally wondrous.
I'm still in touch with Bill Yarrow and Geoff MacLaughlin. Old friends are special.
It's been a year since I edited this. I've spent much of that year working on a divorce with my wife of 20 years. C'est la vie!

Warm regards to all.
