Just saw this on FB this morning and it sadden's me to share it here but know he had MANY friends across the country, say a prayer for his wife Marcy if you can.


For those that don't know... my stepdad Raymond Adkins was very sick and was admitted to KU Med on Thursday. At 1:15am May 5th he took his last breath. He is no longer in pain and is in a much better place. Me and my family are trying to process this and thank each and everyone of you for thoughts and prayers. If you have any questions please address them to me and let my mom come to terms with this loss. If you want any details please inbox me here and I can call you or call me if you have my number. On e again please shower my mom and our family in prayers.

I'm sorry to hear of your loss, my prayers go out to you and your's during this difficult time.

not good. I really liked ray

Very sad news, really sorry to hear this, Ray was one of the first to welcome me here and one of the first to always welcome me at an NTA convention he was at where I attended.

I know he was in terrible pain, if any good comes of this it's he will not have to suffer any more and is a much better place.
Prayers are sent to Marcy and family for their loss and to help comfort them in such a big loss.

Ray was a great guy with a giant heart, he will be missed by many !!

Rest In Peace Ray , your pain & suffering is over .
You were a good friend for many years .
Prayers for Marcy & all the Family.

I just read this on FB as well . Rest in peace my friend

Ray was one of the good guys. He was one of the very first members on here and on Otter Creek before Trapperman. He was an easy guy to like and be around. His last post on here was in September of last year. Here's a list of his posts - https://trapperman.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/ubb/userposts/id/249

Rest in peace Ray. His family will be in our prayers.

rayaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Sad news. RIP Ray.

Sad news indeed. Ray A was a good buddy on Otter Creek time before Tman. Always with the positives. RIP Ray A.

Dang gonna miss him. He was one of the first to welcome me to Trapperman as well.

I also counted Ray a good friend and was welcomed by him at otter creek and my first national convention.Tall , skinny, tie dyed and bearded.

RIP Ray

RIP

Dang, that is heartbreaking news. My thoughts and prayers are with you Marcy!! He will be missed.

Turtle I thought of that time you and him stayed with me and gclar cause it was going to rain that night, ive never laughed so hard so much in life before or since, what a crazy time we had in that hotel room, lol.

So sad to hear this news.First met Ray on Pauls chat.Then we would always catch up on things over coffee at the Missouri convention.
If Ray wasn't able to make it,he would ask one of the Mo.boys to buy a cup of coffee and bring it to my booth.
Rest in peace my friend,and the next time we meet--The coffees on me.

Very sad news this morning. Ray and I traveled to many trapping conventions together in Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa and of course Missouri. We trapped a number of beaver and an occasional otter together as well. We met back in the otter creek chat many years ago. I will miss my friend and will cherish all of the memories we had together.
Please say a prayer for Marcy and all of Rays family as of course this is a very difficult time for them.

Rest well my friend.....

Ray was on SPAV before Otter Creek also.... One of the Old timers....

God speed.

Sad to hear this, I have many many fond memories of Ray . What a character, always a big grin on his face, ornery as they come, and as big a heart as there was.
Always with a big hug, and kind to the core. Praying for Marcy, and all the family in this difficult time.

Early character that I remember in the early years from this site. Good advice. Sad to hear!
