He loved sports and things. He was very supportive of me and his mother, and I just don't know why and what's becoming of these young men out here that they have to be so violent all the time and taking somebody else's life. It's seeming to become the way of these young men out here today, and I just can't understand that," Ray Sr. said.Police said homicide detectives are following up on leads in the case, and they think there are witnesses who may be able to help them with the investigation.Ray Jr.'s family members said they are planning services for Sunday and Monday.
