Raymond John Kilz passed peacefully with his family by his side on Dec. 3, 2016, to join his bride Maria for eternal joy. Born in McCook, Nebraska Jan. 17, 1924, to Angelina Cimentelli and Mackenzie Woods, he lived a vibrant and joyful life. Meeting the love of his life as he went into the Navy at the age of 18, they married and went on to raise four children. From Brooklyn to Los Angeles to Tulare and finally to Skaneateles, N.Y., he was a traveler. He was a serial entrepreneur and developed multiple businesses in insurance, real estate, automotive repair and home financing. He loved poetry writing and was an avid reader. But most of all he loved his wife, Maria, who passed earlier this year also at the age of 92.
