I love you and miss you so much Daddy! It’s almost December 1st, and unbelievably 6 years since you went to be with Jesus. Sometimes it still seems like yesterday and there are times I think of something I’d like to tell you and realize I can’t just call you up. I think I miss your jokes and hugs the most. You always made me smile. I love you always and forever. Merry Christmas Daddy!

I dreamed that your spirit took you and Mom to Paris. One last trip together and then you left for good. Some days your absence feels as real and raw as it did right after you left this world. Strange how that happens. I miss you. A lot a lot. I love you, love you, love you, love youuuuuuuu!!

Miss you still and always will. You would not believe what the world is like now. I am so thankful that you don't have to be here and experience all the horrific things that are happening. Fighting cancer for 4 1/2 years was enough! Forever in my heart! xo

Well, Ron...it is the middle of July already. Summer is half over. It feels as though it had only begun yesterday. Since you died, Uncle Donald, Uncle Lee, and now Uncle Bob have all left. Perhaps you know that...? I am trying to walk and do things I should do. How I miss you company, your encouragement, and your love. Ben is trying so hard to help me and do what he should. I don't see Lizzy and the kids very often...so much to be done all the time. Again...I had NO idea of all the things you so silently, deftly, and perfectly took care of...never complaining, never regretful, always sweetly. I will forever love you and hold you in my heart. I have said it before, and I will say it again...you (and your family) are one of the greatest gifts God has ever given me. It amazes me how loving and caring he is, even though I don't deserve it! Since you left, we have lost people, the world is changing rapidly...more than before you left, and not, in my opinion, for the better! It is all part of God's plan though and I really don't know how much longer He will allow these things to go on. You are lucky, in that you are missing the evil that is so powerful and present in our world...though, of course God is stronger, and nothing will happen without his allowing it to bring the end. I will forever be grateful to you for taking care of me all those years and leaving such respect and great impression that others have tried to take your place in that matter.
Love forever and ever into eternity!

Another two anniversaries have come and gone...the last night you were alive and I was able to actually talk to you, and the day you died, December 1st. I wonder what life would be like if you were still here. I wonder if you knew for sure how very much I loved/love you. It has been so very difficult for all of us here without you. I miss you so much every single day and probably will, until I join you. You were the greatest gift I ever received in live, other than salvation. It's almost Christmas. As usual, I am way behind. I will never forget how magical the days were with us together this time of year. We had SUCH a good time together...always! It mean more to mean I could every hope to even express. I am so thankful for you. You made life an adventure, a treasure, a joy! I am trying, Ron, I really am. Just sometimes, I wish I didn't have to. Thank God for our children, our grands, my nieces and their families, and my faith. Otherwise, this would be absolutely impossible to bear. Sammy stayed here last night. She is already SIX years old. She got homesick though and cried her heart out. I cried too...I felt so bad for her! I know better than a great many that lonely feeling. I love you forever more!

I can hardly believe it’s been a year since you passed. I am aware how quickly the years pass by and yet somehow this year has been completely and totally different than any other. A lot sad, a lot lonely, and never the same without you. I miss you so much it hurts. I don’t have great memories of those last days, but I am eternally grateful that I was able to be there with you. Thank you for everything you ever did for me. I don’t think it would have been possible to thank you enough, had I had lifetimes in which to do it! I love you soooooooo much and I miss your hugs. I like to picture you, in Heaven, telling stories and cracking jokes with all our relatives that are no longer with us. No one knows for sure, but that’s what I’ll keep picturing, until we meet again. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Message from Judy

Yesterday was your birthday. Why does it seem even more difficult now than it was last month or the month before. Summer, you were missed, but now, it seems more difficult than ever for all of us. Maybe now, we realize how MUCH we miss you...all the things you used to take care of...how wonderful the fall always was with you...
Maybe that is the problem. I am not sure, but it is so hard. You would have loved Sarah's and Becka's tributes to you on facebook. You would have loved to see your Whitmable grandkids and Lizzy and Brett, as they left a birthday card in a ziplock bag at the base of your gravestone and a pumpkin. for the season you loved the most. Ben took me out for supper...to Monte Albans, and we talked about you through most of the meal.
I know when it is our appointed time, we need to be with our Father in heaven, but why! Why did he take you so soon? I am not angry, I am not questioning God, I just miss you more than I even thought I would. I have no idea how lonely I would be without you...I thought I did, but I absolutely did not!
I love you forever and ever!

I can not believe it has been over seven months since you left. Time goes so very quickly...but the loss is no less now than in December...maybe it is even more now. Why is it that the hole and pain in my heart never goes away? Why is it that one day I can keep it together and another...like today, I am just falling apart? My love for you is eternal. It will never lessen, never end. I can not WAIT until we are together again! I know it will not be the same, but I don't care! Just to be close to you again and see your beautiful face will suffice for me. Oh Ron, you are soooo loved. I hope you knew it when you were struggling so at the end. I am sorry if I didn't do enough to let you know. See you later... All my love forever and ever!

I missed a couple of Fridays Dad. Not for lack of thinking of you. I think of you far too often to keep track. Your headstone was put in while I was up in Rochester visiting Mom and the rest of the family for Payton’s graduation. You would have been so proud Dad. Payton is so tall and grown up, it’s hard to believe he was once a round little baby.

We missed having you there, but we enjoyed each other’s company. Ben has stepped into your shoes and has been doing everything in his power to care for Mom in your absence. He works so hard, Mom works so hard... We all miss you so much, it feels so strange here without you. None of us could have ever bargained for the reality of it all.

I hear songs that remind me of you, smell things that remind me of you...basically everything reminds me of you! I love you and miss you so much! Roxy is cuddling me as I type this. I look at her and always think of how you said photos of she and Monkey made you sleepy!

Anyway, I will stop my babbling for now. I love you love you love you love you!!!

This is the most difficult thing I have EVER done...going on with life, without you. I am preparing one of your most favorite meals today. I didn't want to do it...just like I have to force myself to do everything else, but I an doing it. Yesterday was the 46th anniversary of our first formal date. It remains in my memory just as though it were yesterday. Our anniversary of our getting together was the 11th...46 years of being with you...except for the past almost four months. How I wish I could see you, talk to you, kiss you, have you smile at me just one more time! I really had NO idea what this would be like. I think I feel worse now than when you first left. I love you with all my heart and soul forever and ever. Happy belated St. Patty's Day, Ron!

Could it really be over two months, since God took you home to be with him? It seems impossible, until I look around at all you left behind and see that you are not here. But you are here...in memories by the zillions, in the painting you did on the house, the lawn you worked so tirelessly on, which is not blanketed in snow. The pool you took care of for me. I go into the garage and see all your painting equipment. What will we do with it all? You were such a great presence in all our lives. I am only beginning to realize all you did for all of us. You were never much to talk about yourself or brag about anything. A sweet, affable, humble man. Funny, loving, dedicated to your family. I love you...more...forever!

Putting the Christmas decorations away. Almost all thank you notes you were so worried about completed. Miss you so very much! Remember all the many years, you helped me get out all the bins and put them back...climbing ladders to do the outside lights. Ben did it all, just like you did. He is much like you, you know! You used to take all the decorations off the big tree and put them on a card table for me to pack. How I miss your company, your wisdom, your advice, and your love, but so glad you are not suffering and that you need not have any more of the bad things in your life. Love you "more than tongue can tell", forever and ever! xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

If only we could have had you a while longer, but who would want you to suffer more than you already did? We miss you more than you could ever imagine. I think that I will be ok, and then something reminds me of you so clearly that I feel the huge void all over again. You were the very best husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle, and friend that anyone could wish for. Thank you for all you gave of yourself, selflessly for the time you were with us! Loving you was an easy privilege! xoxoxoxoxoxo forever and ever!

Hey Cuz,
This is much too soon. We had lots of memories growing up less than 2 years apart, and our houses within few miles apart in Wayne County.

I remember your saxophone playing, times at Grandma's in the summer, visits to your family farm with my parents, visits with spouses and children, and wonderful family reunions at your house. Also, I recollect one memorable baseball game when some of our teammates from Wayne and Marion Central Schools decided to have a tussle. We stood next to one another in case we had to bear hug like we were joining in. Luckily, we didn't have to.

I never saw you teach, but met many people through the years who spoke highly of you and Judy. I am sure you were a great influence on your students.

You will be missed!

Love, Bob Jr, your 1st Cousin, well, a 1st Cousin!

Ron went thru WC school with my older brother Bill, & I was thrilled to have him join the staff while I was in school. Seems to me maybe he & Bob Biviano & Gene Bavis all came just about the same time. THAT'S what's nice about a small hometown community! I was class of '72, but continued seeing Ron around Ontario, Williamson, & Walworth. What a delightful human being! Ron was always an "upper". He leaves a huge gap. Fortunately, he's left offspring & grands to carry on that Porray personality.

Message from Tom and Shelley Gentile

We too are deeply saddened on Ron's passing. His legacy will live on in our communities and especially at Wayne Central. Ron's contributions as both a student and a teacher with be ever lasting. His athleticism was amazing and I remember his love for baseball standing on the mound throwing his wicked lefty curve ball. We will certainly miss his never ending smile.

Message from Jacquelyn Courtney

Judy and Family- We are profoundly saddened by the thought of Ron's passing. He was such a gentle and giving soul, the world is less a great man. I am only reassured by the amount of people whom he had inspired to be better -- he was the consummate teacher and mentor. It is hard to find someone of this generation who was not impacted by the Porray family - either in Wayne Central or the Ontario community at large. Know that his legacy lives on in family, friends, teachers and of course, his students. God bless you and bring you comfort in this difficult time.
