.In 1959 irish moss was being harvested by local fisherman on the coastline of south west Nova Scotia. It was there that Ray began a diving career as a commercial diver using an under water cutter to cut irish moss. At 14 and diving in the North Atlantic was awesome ( Water temperatures reached a high 50F in August). The commercial diving increased to working with the local fishermen ,on their boat,weirs, and doing salvage. In 1965 he enlisted in the US Navy and in 1968 he was discharge and fished in the North Atlantic out of Yarmouth ,Nova Scotia. It did not take very long to realize that getting an education was more important and safer than fishing thus he retruned to the USA and has lived in the USA ever since with annual trips to Nova Scotia to visit family and friends.
