Grannan family - you are so dear to our Bugher family. So many happy memories throughout the years. Ray was such a positive man, always thinking of others. His determination in his fight against cancer was heroic. Tina - you are in our hearts and in our prayers. May God grant you strength and peace as you mourn his tremendous loss. With much love to you, Kevin, Kim and Kerry and all of your extended family at this time. You have a place to visit in Austin, Texas whenever you want. Love, Don and Mary Valdez

Ray was a part of our lives for so long. We have so many memories of him usually sitting around Kevin and Candi's kitchen table, laughing and telling stories or voicing his opinions about, well, everything LOL. He was beloved and dear. Safe travels, Ray.

Ray and Tina's family were are first neighbors when we moved to Indy, 49 years ago. We loved them then, and the feeling is the same now. We shared so many good times together, and a few heartaches too. Ray will truly be missed by all, Tina our thoughts and prayers are with you and all your family. Love, Dom and Phyllis
