Raymond L. Moon was born July 16, 1953 to Harry L. and Helen J. Moon 

in Montrose, CO. He graduated from Montrose High School in 1971. He

started a career in law enforcement working as a deputy sheriff for Montrose

County and then in Ouray County. He left law enforcement and followed in his dad’s footsteps and drove big rigs cross country until his health would bring him back home to help care for his mom. 

Raymond loved his horses and leather working. Ray never met a stranger. He loved meeting people and could carry on a conversation with anyone. He made many friends. In most recent months he found a great love with Lynne. They were enjoying traveling and were making plans to go camping and spend the holidays together.  

Raymond was at the family cabin - hunting camp at the time of his passing. 

He had told everyone how excited he was to be able to go hunting. It truly was one of his favorite spots and hobbies.

Raymond loved his family deeply. He was a very proud Dad and Papa.

Raymond is survived by his sisters: Kathy (David) Roberts, 

Bev (Paul) Castle, Sons: Dustin (Jamie) – Emerson, Easton

Robert (Amber) – Mason, Aleczandyr, Wren, Madyson, Aubrey

As well as many nephews, nieces, Aunts, Uncles and cousins  

He will be greatly missed. There is solitude in knowing he had found GOD.
