In Memory of Raysean Ford

On Saturday morning the worlds biggest smile…a hug that could momentarily take away your problems…the most infectious laugh was ripped away from us all. Raysean was a doting son, grandson, godson, nephew, and cousin. He was a fiercely loyal friend and brother to so many. When Raysean walked into a room there was a shift in energy that exuded the utmost positivity.

At the young age of 36 our family was not prepared to bare the financial burdens of laying him to rest. Being the light he was in so many lives he deserves a respectable homecoming that honors and embodies who he was to so many of us. With very heavy and humble hearts, we the family, ask if we can all come together to make it possible. Any support that you are able to provide is immensely appreciated and will go directly to his mom, Emelia.

Lastly, please keep the family in your thoughts and prayers. This unexpected death has left each of us beyond heartbroken. Thank you in advance for your generosity, love, and concern.
