Condolences for Raymond Force
Dear Cathy and family,
Sending prayers to you all that God will comfort you at this difficult time.
Ray was a beacon of his faith, may he be resting peacefully in the arms
of his Almighty Father.
Love,
Patty
So Sad to hear about the passing of Ray. He and Cathy were wonderful colleagues that helped out on our marching band and orchestra trips. We all made some wonderful memories together. He will be greatly missed!!!
Ray, I will forever miss you. You were one of the kindest person’s I knew. We certainly had so much fun playing all those gigs together. I will always remember the Shad Festivals and all the other gigs. You were a great drummer. The world is a lot sadder without you. God Bless you and I know that you are in Heaven now. Job well done!!!
I am so sorry for your loss. Ray and I worked together at Central and I attended his Sunday services when I lived in Lambertville. He was always kind, thoughtful and will be greatly missed.
Very sorry for your loss. I met Ray at Hunterdon Central where I really enjoyed our conversations about life and philosophy. Ray was a good caring man and was great with the students he supported. He will be missed.

I am so sorry to hear this news! I remember having some great conversations with Ray when he was here at Central. Since I am a music teacher, and also a church musician I felt a real connection to Ray. I also remember going to hear him play his drums at the Shad Fest in Lambertville one year. What a wonderful guy!
So very sorry to hear of Ray's passing. I hope the memories and the beautiful family you created together will help to carry you through until you meet again.
I am so very sad to hear of Ray's passing but know as much as he will be missed God was so very happy to see him! I was a teenager at First Baptist in Lansdale and Ray was my youth pastor. He was so real and not only showed us his love of God but that pastors could be soooo cool! Playing the drums and just relating to us as teenagers. Most ministers we were exposed to were so much older than us. He definitely touched my life and I will always remember him. I know that he also touched my families life, especially my dad David who was a church custodian! He loved Ray and his shining personality and love for God! God be with your family in this difficult time but know that he touched so many of us and we carry a thought of him to this day. “Well done, well done my good and faithful one. Welcome to the place where you belong. Well done, well done my beloved child. You have run the race and now you’re home. Welcome to the place where you belong” -The Afters
Erin, we are so sorry for your loss. We were planning to come to the services this morning, but the icy snow here is making even our driveway look bad. We are holding you in the light, and wishing we could make the trip to be there to support you.
Your father was a remarkable person who inspired many in many ways.
Much love, Linda and André
