Rinaldo, known as RayRay was charming, very intelligent, engagong, funny, he could talk to anyone in any situation. He was athletic, loved by many.
Tell Us About Their Struggles With Addiction:
RayRay started using opiates in high school. They were never prescribed, but given to him initially to help him play through the pain of a football injury. He smoked pot as well, and, if the truth he known, used whatever he could get his hands on. This evolved into the heroin addiction which eventually led him to jail. After 6 + months sober he relapsed and died from fentayl-laced heroin with his first use.

Everything. He loved life, dogs, babies, his family. He was a prankster.

His voice, his hugs. He wasn't a big guy, but he was strong and wrap his big strong arms around me. I loved working in the yard with him.
