Dear Lykins Family: I've just learned of Raymond's homegoing. What a blessed life Raymond had. 94 Years is quite a blessing. My family knew Raymond way back in the early 1950's, Willard, Ohio, and some stayed in touch off and on over the years. Raymond was a wonderful person, and my family thought highly of him. Steven, may our Lord bless you and your family with wonderful memories of your Dad,
