Ray Charles September 23, 1930 - June 11, 2004

Thank you Ray for living, loving & being. Thank you for inventing Soul music on that rainy afternoon in the little radio station in Atlanta Georgia in 1954.



"I'm not into the money thing. You can only sleep in one bed at a time. You can only eat one meal at a time, or be in one car at a time. So I don't have to have millions of dollars to be happy. All I need are clothes on my back, a decent meal, and a little loving when I feel like it. That's the bottom line."
-- Ray Charles
