We are very sad to hear this news. Ray and Ruth parked next to us when we won the Atlanta divisional a few years ago. They stayed until the very end to cheer us on and for the winner's circle picture. Our hearts go out to Ruth.

Brenda and Bill

Our condolences go out to Ruth and the rest of the Valpreda family. I met Ray back when he was driving The Class of 65 U/SA Dodge wagon. A Classy guy and a Classy racer. Stock Eliminator has another angel looking over the rest of us. RIP my friend.

John "JB" and Peggy Bender

What a loss .The world and the racing community lost a great man Saturday who will be missed by many .He left behind his children , grandchildren and his loving wife - Ruth .

For me - Ray and I were friends since the early seventies and for a time were even race car partners .And I valued his friendship every day - he was just that kind of guy .And a good racer also as he was the 1979 Division One Stock Champion .RIP Ray ..........
