It’s been said that Ray Mish was everyone’s friend.

Der Veteran des Zweiten Weltkriegs, Familienvater und Bestattungsunternehmer Ray Mish stirbt im Alter von 99 Jahren VON STEVEN MAYERsmayer@bakersfield.com 3. April 2024 vor 4 Stunden Es heißt, Ray Mish sei jedermanns Freund gewesen.

He loved to go to his favorite restaurants, or even Costco, where he would usually see several old friends and invariably meet a number of new ones — because Mish smiled and said hello to everyone.

Er liebte es, in seine Lieblingsrestaurants zu gehen, oder sogar ins Costco, wo er normalerweise mehrere alte Freunde traf und immer auch eine Reihe neuer traf – denn Mish lächelte und begrüßte alle.
