  8. To the family of Ray Beagan (Also to include Peggy Holt his close friend and longtime roommate), I am very sorry for your loss. Ray was well liked, especially in the Old Car Hobby. I met Ray when he began working at the Providence Post Office in the late 1980’s and since then we remained friends for many years.
    We continued to stay in contact even when Doreen and I relocated to Florida 12 years ago.
