Mr. Raymand was a wonderful entertainer on and off the air. Not only did he popularize humor and energy when delivering the weather, but he also played an exuberant trumpet. Along with fellow Channel 4 alum and accordionist, Don Francois, as well as many others, he orchestrated the unforgettable Nat Basta on The Hill and all around St. Louis!
Thank you for sharing him with us for so many years. May fond memories bring comfort to you at this difficult time.
