Ray Powers Obituary

Dorthy, I am sorry to hear your loss. It was sad to hear the news from my mother yesterday morning. I could not thank Mr. Powers enough for letting me have my Eagle Scout Court of Honor on the ranch, in 2001. I'm glad he was my guest speaker, I hold that memory as one of the best in my life. I have done nothing but looked up to him, and attempt to model his great attitude in life. I even remember one time wanting to be a Senetor, all because of Mr. Powers. He will be missed.

Dorothy - we are sad of Rays passing. There are so many good memories of him. I know James will never forget his kindness and being able to share his Eagle Scout Day with Ray at the ranch! He often speaks of that. Our thoughts are with you.

Dorothy, we are so sorry to hear of Ray's passing. Our Aunt Carol Powers Rapp was also an aunt to Ray and Marjorie. He was like a cousin to us. He was a wonderful guy and we had a lot of fun times at the original Powers diary when we were kids.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. Ron and Mary Ann (Rapp) Bevans

My brother Raymond;was best friend and playmate in our childhood days and teenage years.He was the one I looked up to for many years He was a brother to be proud of. He served his community well.May he rest in peace.

I boarded my horse at the "old dairy" on Constitution and Powers and I have the fondest memories of Ray and his family. I will never forget Ray's kindness and generousity. My deepest sympathy and prayers are with his family.

Dorothy, you are certainly in our thoughts and prayers. We know Ray will be greatly missed and may you be comforted by the many friends and family who surround you during the coming days. Please know we care and love you.

My Dearest Friend Janet, Dale & Alexa,
I was deeply sadden by hearing of the loss of your Daddy, today. I can only tell you that he was truly a hard working eager man. Wanting only the very best for the people around him and even for the people he did not know. What a wonderful life he had from being the dairy farmer in the barn to the State Capitol Colorado Senate. He will truly be missed but his memories will live on.
Know that my thoughts and prayers go out to you and the family.
All my Love,
Brenda Zook & family

I am saddened by Mr. Powers' passing. I first met Mr. Powers in 1972 after I rolled my dad's car on Powers Blvd and took out a large part of his fence (110 ft). I had a life changing summer that year....

Dorothy,
Our deepest sympathy to you and all your family. We will miss his wonderful laugh and smile. He was a very kind, gentle, and sweet man. We especially will miss his enthusiasm for picking his favorite teams during football and basketball season. May you be comforted by all the wonderful memories of him and the fond wishes of those close to you.
You are in our prayers,
Lou and Sharon

I am saddened to hear of Ray's death and my heartfelt sympathies to you Dorothy and your entire family. Not very often do you find a man of Ray's integrity in life. It was certainly a priviledge to have met him. Mary K. Ward

To Melissa and her family...our most heartfelt condolences are with you as you mourn the loss of a wonderful man.
