Dear Damian,

Our regional leader asked me to have you post this information. We sent it to you a couple of days ago, but I don't think it's been posted. We want to make sure his friends nationwide know about it. Thanks a lot.

RAY BRATCHER

Monday May 5, 2003, our brother Ray Bratcher passed without warning into the spirit world of an apparent heart attack. He was at home in Cincinnnati at the time. His wife is Miriam is from Brazil, and they have a son about 10 years old named Nathan.

Ray was born in Germany (his full name is Rainer Bratcher) and has lived many years in America. He was a Saeilo machinery representative for several years, and recently worked for another company.

Ray is known for his warm, upbeat, positive good nature and his strong love and admiration for his wife and son. His family is an exemplary family devoted to True Parents and God's providence. He was very pleased about the recent developments in the ministers providence.

He was so excited when he reported how certain ministers "really get it! There are some who really understand Father's vision!"

Seung Hwa arrangements: The Seung Hwa ceremony will take place Thursday May 8 at noon in Cincinnati. Our regional director Rev. Ki Yeal Lee invites brothers and sisters to send donations to the family through the Ohio Family Church.
