Ray was owner of Ray's Electronics in High Point, North Carolina until a couple years ago when his health failed and he had to take it easier. (He had heart problem) but his death was unexpected. He was a great friend and ham and will be missed by many in the ham community. He set up at many hamfests on the East Coast and was a Alinco dealer among others. His wife Judy and daughter Sherry went to many hamfests with him. My condolences to his family and I will miss him.
