Ray Dillard Biography

My Bio

   What would you like to know?  I’ll cover some of the basics and if you have questions, feel free to ask. Vicki and I have been married for thirty-eight (38) years in August.  I’m a retired school administrator and she continues to serve as a Theatre Arts teacher. We have two (2) adult children who are also teachers and both are happily married. I’m proud to say that everyone holds a Master’s Degree.  We are blessed to have two (2) beautiful granddaughters and do our very best to teach, love and spoil them all at the same time.

    Vicki and I live in a country home in Wichita County in North-Central Texas. I spend my time Farming and writing. I consider my first published book to be a great personal accomplishment. As I Recall, is a collection of short narrative essays and poetry that shares memories from my life. Check it out some day.

Ray , this is a lovely idea. I've been swamped lately and have not even had tiime to see many blogs, but I will certainly take a look soon. I remember the book I read of yours long ago. You are someone with very deep ties to family, something I strongly believe in too!

I'm glad you took the time to read the series. It's just something I had to do!

I just read your poems and was very touched by them. Your words painted vivid pictures of what was going on. It's so hard to watch our loved ones suffer. Looking at old family photos is a great past-time. A few years back my dad, who was a photographer and a photograph restorer, divided up several old family photos of great-grandparents, grandparents, baby pictures etc. between my siblings and I. I love to look back at them. Thank you for sharing your memories with us. Love, Kim
