One of our stalwarts is gone......

[Ncbob]

I don't know how many of us knew Ray Burgess, "Rayhound", but he has left us. Ray spent most of his time out west  but I'm sure he was known to many of us, mostly MC5'ers.

If I might I'd like to post an article for those who might wish to attend his Memorial........

Bob, thanks for posting.  I am always sad to hear about these deaths.  It always seems so close to home!

I did a quick read the first time and thought you said Rayshound.  That would be Ray Lala.  That really sent a shiver up my spine, as Ray just posted that he was selling his bus and all the parts. 

I did not get to meet Ray Burgess, but did get to visit with Ray Lala and had a great time.

My condolences to Ray Burgess's family and friends.

Jim
