Raymond Andrew Short Jr., age 36, entered eternal rest July 9, 2013. Our Beloved son, Raymond Andrew Short, was born on October 3, 1976, to Stephanie Miles and Raymond Short, in Cincinnati, Ohio. He departed this life on July 9, 2013. Raymond was preceded in death by his niece, LeMeka Miles and nephew, Tyrese Short. Raymond attended school in the Cincinnati Public School system. He ran into many challenges and troubles along the way, but more with joy. God has a picky way of recruiting his soldiers but he always picks the ones with the biggest heart. Raymond loved his family with the utmost, but he loved his babies with his all. He was a leader, giver, and supporter. He will always be remembered for his smile that lit up the room ad his silly laugh. Raymond leaves to celebrate his life: his mother, Stephanie E. Short (Roy) who adored him; his father, Raymond Short, Sr.; his four children, Tye-Ray, Kaedon, Raymond III, and Rayvon; his lovely fiance', Marquisa Lemons; grandmother, Mary Miles; brothers, Damon Short and Kimani Smith; sisters, Kinesha Miles, Latawanda Short, and Danielle Short; aunts, Daina (Paul) Brown, Bell (Skip) Terry, Jennifer (Greg) Pickett, Cathy Short; uncle, Darryl Miles.
