Leo, if you get a chance to visit him, don't delay.  Make it over the next few weeks...time slips and we forget, and then the moment is gone.

As well, bring something to record (even your cellphone will do in a pinch).  You can never write fast enough to remember everything.  Just speaking from experience of having helped preserve some memories from my grandfather & mother-in-law.

Cheers!

To give one small snippet Ray shared the night of the Aurora presentation. 

He was working at the Aurora Roundhouse when the war broke out and like many men he quickly volunteered. Upon returning after the war he could see those new shiny diesels coming into service and foresaw what that meant for the Roundhouse employees.

So despite friends saying he was foolish, he became a loco. Fireman and started over at the bottom of the seniority list. He added that ten years later he was working and all

Those old roundhouse co-workers were gone.
