There's more to be said too. Our ancestors make us who we are and I love looking back at them - it shows me how much they gave us. Thanks for reading!

This put Edie and Timmie (my mother) through school. Sara Emily aka Timmie is still living. It's really nice to know more about your Dad, my Uncle.

Your eulogy, for me, exposes what I would have wished for in a father. "...a father, a mentor, a colleague, a friend." I am left with concluding I had a father. That's it. I've read your eulogy twice, I've studied the litany of your father's achievements. I am left with the conclusion your father was a good and decent man, a humble man who found it in himself to see the worth of setting aside ego and becoming the clown. What a noble endeavor. What strength he must have possessed. What love he must have effused. I wish I could have known him. My tribute: I wish my father could have found it in himself to emulate George Wray. I have seen and wondered at the beauty of the rolling hills of Pennsylvania. I see George Wray doing the same, from a time and place he surely earned entry to by the life he lived, by the mere testament of a son that he was, besides a father, a mentor, a colleague, a friend. Godspeed George Wray. My deepest sympathy, Doog. George Doog
