They took in seven foster children during this time. There were times when they would load up the seven along with their four children and them and go on vacation. The kids always loved those vacations. Ray was a well loved man who never knew a stranger. He loved to fish, hunt, camp, spend time with family, and talk to anyone or everyone. People will always remember the "Milk Man" and what a wonderful, caring, giving and strong man he was. He was preceded in death by his parents, George D. and Flora Thompson; brother Walter; sisters, Frances, Carol and Margaret; son, Kenneth; and son-in-law, Lance.
