Ray Buck -- We Thank YOU for your PASSION!!!!!!
It led the way, for RAY the RAT---
I met Ray the morning after his "I think" first night, before he actually set foot on the Salt---Andy and I were camped out way down the canal from the bend in the road. I do not remember who was there first---we were just way down from anyone else. We introduced ourselves--and spent several nights as camping neighbors. Learned about each others sins and passions---when we breaking camp, we laughingly said----"Well here's to us being able to say as we knew each other as nobody's sleeping by the canal" WE left laughing!!!
He and I often kidded each other about sleeping in dirt as "WANTaBEs" as we stayed in touch over the years!
Ray, here's to your wonderful inspiration and legacy!
Few have done more with their 2nd chance at life than you did!!!
