His role as a father extended to being a grandfather to Kristina Lafevere (Chris), David “DJ” Burt Jr, Jonathan Adams, Stephen Adams, Michael Elmore, Joshua Vincent, and Brandon Vincent. Raymond’s legacy continues through his ten great-grandchildren: Cooper, Owen, Ian, Kierra, Michael Jr., Corvin, Levi, Jeremiah, Haley, and Juliet.

He also mourned the loss of a grandson, Justin “Juddy” Burt, and four siblings: Freddie Loy, Betty Murphy, Peggy Furkin, and Harold Loy.
