Raymond Luis Hernandez was born on April 13, 1977, to Luis Hernandez and Migdalia (Santiago) Hernandez in Camden, New Jersey. Raymond was a Christian. He treasured his collections of GI-Joes and Transformers from his favorite childhood cartoons, which transitioned into his adulthood by adding Gundam and Funko Pops. He had a huge love for his cars, the NY Yankees, and all New York sporting teams which he made sure he represented by coordinating his outfits. Raymond had a big love of food and always asked to have Chinese on his birthday. Raymond was very prideful of his Puerto Rican heritage and displayed it with his tattoos to the flags he hung in his cars.

Raymond is survived by his parents, Luis and Migdalia Hernandez, his siblings, Solange Fry and husband, Ryan, Marla Urbish and husband, Brian, two nephews, Logan and Xavier Fry, one niece, Etta Urbish, several Aunts, Uncles and Cousins, as well as his best canine friend, Duke. Raymond was also part of a strong deaf community and had a tremendous number of friends, who became part of his family. Raymond will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the American Cancer Society American Cancer Society or National Association of the Deaf www.nad.org.
