		Ray was similar to Shannon in his personality.
		He was very outspoken, quite funny to hang around, and Ray and I had a cordial relationship while he lived in Shannon’s East Orange mini mansion in the early-mid 90’s.
		Pras (of the Fugees) was in the house and Ray did his best to make sure Pras paid attention to him and not Shannon, who had just recorded a song on the Fugees album ’The Score.’ With that being said, time would pass and the two housemates would eventually become distant strangers.
