It is with a heavy heart that we start this fundraising effort to assist with costs for U.S. Marine Raymond Tourville services. Any remaining funds will be placed in a trust account for his daughter to support her future.
Ray began his journey in service early, joining the Young Marines at just 11 years old. He was part of the first graduating class of the newly named Cpl. Nicholas Xiarhos Young Marines and excelled in every way
Ray was born and raised in Sandwich, Massachusetts, graduating from Sandwich High School in 2015. Just days after graduation, he left for Marine Corps boot camp, dedicating the next nine years of his life to serving our country with honor, courage, and loyalty.
Those who served with him remember him for his strength, dedication, and commitment to his fellow Marines.
At only 27 years old, Ray's hidden battle has come to a tragic end.
His absence leaves an unimaginable void, and we are left grieving, wishing we could have done more—anything—to help him.
His life touched so many, and the memories and impact he left behind will forever be part of his legacy.
As we prepare to bring Ray home and honor his life with the respect he deserves, we ask for your help. Any donation, no matter the size.
Please keep the Tourville family in your thoughts and prayers as they navigate this unimaginable loss. Ray will forever be missed.
22Mohawks is here for anyone in need from this profound loss. Please contact us if we can be of any service to you.
