This talk really brings back memories. Johnny Ray had a hit song with “The
Little White Cloud that Cried” and at the time my brother was recovering from
a near fatal bout of Rheumatic Fever. That was his favorite song so my mom
bought the record and he played it over and over and over again until it
actually wore out. Boy was I glad.

Yes, and his stone in the Hopewell Cemetery is just a very nondescript
stone with only his name and dates. I guess the family probably did that because
they did not want it vandalized. If you go to the Polk County Museum in
Rickreall, they have quite a lot of information on Johnny Ray and have had a
couple of good programs on him as well.
