I recall growing up with my cousin in Linda, Ca. Strange we both went into law enforcement. I went into the Army as an MP later Criminal Investigations (CID), later became a Federal Air Marshall and an Evidence Custodian in Sherwood, OR. My aunt, Raymond’s mother, before she passes told us he went into law enforcement but did not know where. No would like to find his grave and his family.
