Passing: Sadly Raymond took his own life almost 4 years after the accident that took the life of Donald.
About Raymond:
Raymond was the baby of the family. He was one of those cute, cheeky looking, mischievious youngsters that everyone couldn't help but look at and smile, mostly to do with the Red hair I reckon.
At still a very young age he had to suffer the loss of both his papa (whom he was with everyday) and his father within a day apart, which changed family life a great deal. Although Raymond did speak of recently that at that young age he didn't fully understand what death was but knew that it had a big impact and left a big void in his life.
As the years went on Raymond followed Donald (his big brother) in everything he done, he looked upto him for guidance and were best friends. They spoke about how one day in the future they would go into business together, doing tyre fitting, panel beating, spray painting etc and this was something they were both working towards.
This all was to change in 2005 when Donald was killed in an accident at work, this left Raymond with more anger & upset. Which then led to him being able to face the pain no more and deciding to be with Donald again.
There was times when he was happy or seemed happy and this was when he went to raves, months of planning went into each event and this gave him something to look forward to. My mum would make all the outfits so we would be different from everyone else and Raymond loved the attention he got from this, people got to know him and enjoyed being round him.
Raymond had loads of friends from loads of different places around the country but a North Motherwell boy he remained to be.

My Tribute:
Again I find myself having to find words about my brother. I never once thought I would have to do this for a second time. The pain the first time round never went away and was so hard to deal with. Now this time it seems alot worse not because I feel differently about both of them but because I understand the hurt Raymond felt for him to do what he did.
I would spend alot of time with him and we would go to pubs n clubs and of course the raves together. Even a good 'party' or drink in the house, for those of you who've been in our company will know what I mean.
Just now I can't really think of the best way to pay my tribute to Raymond but through time I will come back on and update this. So for now at least I know that Raymond is at peace and he feels that pain no longer and I wouldn't want anything less for him.
Love You Lots

Miss Me But Let Me Go
When I come to the end of the road
And the sun has set for me,
I want no tears in a gloom-filled room,
Why cry for a soul set free?
Miss me a little – But not for long
And not with your head bowed low,
Remember the love that we once shared,
Miss me – But let me go.
For this is a journey we all must take,
And each must go alone,
It’s all a part of the Master’s plan
A step on the road to home.
When you are lonely and sick of heart
Go to your friends that we know,
And bury your sorrows in doing good works,
Miss me – But let me go.
Perhaps if we could see the splendour of the land
To which our loved ones are called from you and me,
We’d understand
Perhaps if we could hear the welcome they receive
From old familiar voices all so dear
We would not grieve.
Perhaps if we could know the reason why they went
We’d smile and wipe away the tears that flow
We’d wait content
Miss me – But let me go
RAMEYYY BOYY !!!
