At the age of five his family moved to a farm six miles northeast of Herman where he attended country school until eighth grade. Raymond remained a bachelor until the age of forty, when he married Eunice Mae Wagner on December 16, 1967 at Bethel Lutheran Church in Herman. The couple continued farming on the family farm until their retirement in 2004 when they moved into Herman. Raymond was a lifelong member of Bethel Lutheran Church. He was confirmed in 1944. Raymond enjoyed hunting, fishing and camping. What brought true joy to Raymond was spending time with his family, especially his four grandsons: Justin, Joshua, Jordan and Brayden. Raymond passed away on Thursday, December 6, 2012 at Prairie Ridge Hospital in Elbow Lake, Minnesota. Raymond is survived by his wife Eunice of Herman; two children: Jeff (Juli) Kjorness of Danube, Minnesota and Lisa (Gary) Ness of Cyrus, Minnesota; four grandchildren: Justin, Joshua and Jordan Kjorness and Brayden Ness; and three sisters: Linda Rarer of Norcross, Minnesota; Lenora Volker of Barrett, Minnesota and Dorothy Fabian of Herman, Minnesota.
