NORTH ADAMS, Mass. - Raymond H. Dushaney Jr., 52, of North Adams passed away on Thursday, May, 21, 2020.

| Ray and I worked together on many Greylock musicals, building scenery, hanging lights, all the backstage stuff that makes the onstage stuff possible. I will always value the hours we shared-- he was tireless and resourceful and kept his cool and his humor when things, as they always do in live theater, were going haywire. So sorry to hear of his death. | | from: Anne Villalon Speyer | on: 07-07-2020 |

We were so lucky to have had the opportunity to get to know Ray through our son-in-law, Nelson. He had a great sense of humor and was a wonderful story teller, always making us laugh whenever we visited, never taking himself too seriously.
Our sympathies to Carolyn and Nelson,
Carol and Dick Cizek

| Ray was a great family friend, he was also like a brother and a second son to us. Many memories of time spent with Ray that are forever in our minds and hearts. Rays smile was sincere and contagious. He always had your back when in need. It was always tough to get him to slow down and relax. Glad he got to spend time in Otis enjoying the simplistic things in life. Ray you will be missed! | | from: Michael &Rosanne George | on: 05-28-2020 |
