In addition to several speakers who gave remarks at the reception, statements from a number of former colleagues and students were read recognizing Ray's many educational and professional contributions to over 2000 students. As tribute to his expertise at teaching Anatomy, colleagues from the IC Rochester Center also sang an original song to Ray titled " Dissection Man".
