He served in the US Army’s First Infantry Division, aka, The Big Red One. In 1965 Ray & Phyllis were married and raised their children, Laura, Scott, and Shelley in Niles with kindness, respect, and a family first mantra. Ray was a police officer in Niles for thirty-five years. He rose in rank over the years and retired as Chief of Police. Ray worked tirelessly to provide for his family, picking up part time and side jobs whenever available, even starting up a window washing company. Ray earned a bachelor's degree from Northeastern University and is a graduate of the FBI National Academy. Ray was always a leader and volunteered his time coaching, school board, entertaining, etc. As a community leader, Ray travelled to Italy, Greece, and Ireland with Niles Sister Cities. Although Ray and Phyllis moved to Texas for warmer weather, Ray often called his family and friends to check in, never saying goodbye but “talk to you later.” Rest easy Ray, you are home.
