Molly, so very sorry for your loss. Keeping you in my prayers and thoughts
Prayers for him and all his friends and family. I remember Raul at Jesuit for his sense of humor and friendship, even to me, a year behind him
Please allow an old friend from Raul’s youth to express deepest sympathy at his passing. We were good friends in high school and even closer friends in college, although we lost touch over the many years between then and now.
At school, we shared some good times, some sad times and a significant volume of adult beverages at most times. I knew Raul to be an exceptionally kind person who thought of the needs of others, rejoiced at the accomplishments of his friends and was always unduly modest about his own accomplishments. He possessed an excellent sense of humor, which he employed to good effect whenever fate dealt him an undeserved setback or slight. Everyone who knew him was better off for the knowledge. I wish the world were filled with people like Raul.
