In Loving Memory of Ray Carroll Childree Jr
This page is in memory of my little brother who went to meet his maker at the young age of 16. Here is a peom my big brother wrote in his memory:
Sixteen years old and had thoughts of a wife. Never really had a chance to experience his life. Even though I know that Heaven is a better place, I still can't forget the smile that he use to carry on his face. Making people laugh was his specialty. He was always there to comfort who ever was in need. Without him my life has come to a complete standstill. I know his death is reality but it just doesn't seem real. I ask God to make me strong, help me hold on, let me live on, cause in this world I feel so alone. I guess your here today and gone tommorrow. And then all that your left with is painful heartache and sorrow. As I kneel down beside my baby brothers grave I ask him "What am I to do", I tell him that "I don't want to live my life without you." He meant the world to me, but now all I have left is precious memories. Why does life on earth have to end, before life in Heaven can begin? I haven't a clue nor know what to say. So before I go any further I'm dedicating my life to Ray-Ray.

RAY-RAY Little Ray
Ray was born on February 3,1980 and went home to be with the good Lord on October 22,1996. He has so many people who love him and miss him dearly. He had his whole life ahead of him but the Lord had other plans for him.  This is his late school picture he was in 11th grade. He's a very good looking young man if I do say so myself.
