Ray, also known as The Hawaiian Hawk, was a diehard Philadelphia Eagles fan. He enjoyed watching movies and playing poker, especially Texas Holdem. In Ray's spare time, he enjoyed cutting the grass, not only his own, but many of his neighbor's as well. He was an avid woodworker, building many things over the years including the bar and deck at his home. Most of all, Ray enjoyed being a GP and playing with his grandkids.
