Raymond Smith Eutermarks, IV, born July 30th, 1976, age 47, of Pequannock, NJ passed away Saturday, November 4th, 2023, of a sudden and unexpected heart attack.
Raymond is survived by his three children, Mikayla, Emily, and Raymond, who were the light of his life, his wife, Kelly, his parents, Raymond, and Elizabeth, three siblings, Jean, Ryan and Robyn and his partner, Gena Pilitsis. Among his immediate family there are countless aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews, and friends who would have considered him to be as close as a brother and loved just as much.
Raymond grew up in Pequannock, the beloved first born of Raymond and Elizabeth. Their childhood home was a center for countless memories from birthday parties and holiday celebrations to the numerous gatherings that brought forth hours of jokes and love of just being together.
Raymond’s greatest accomplishment was the birth of his children. It is from them that his greatest joy came. He was so immensely proud of them and all their accomplishments. He loved to share with them his interests and hobbies. Some of his favorite memories came from their trips down the shore. The children were so proud of his new apartment and were looking forward to creating many memories there.
Raymond had first started to work alongside his Father at Butler Printing and Laminating, where they worked together for over 20 years. He later obtained his Black Seal low pressure boiler operator license and continued to work in various maintenance positions over the past years including his latest at Arrow Shed Industries.
Raymond’s personality can best be explained through his passion. He never did anything small. There were no half measures or easing into anything; it was always full bore, 120%, all or nothing, top of the line only. He took the bull by the horns and would enjoy anything life had to offer to its fullest extent.
He had a contagious laugh, recognizable from miles away. It was as boisterous as it was charming. Raymond had a love for people. He was one of the most charismatic people anyone could meet. Ray could connect with and befriend just about any person in the world, no matter what walk of life they may have been from.
His hobbies were immense, fish tanks, video games, drones, collectible cards, etc. But whatever it was, you knew he was going to jump into it with everything he had. His fish tanks were going to be the best, filled with the most colorful fish and rarest coral. He also had a love for music. 90’s Rap, most notably Wu Tang Clan, was among his favorites.
Raymond’s enthusiasm did not just exist for all that life had to offer, but more importantly for his family. It was his love of his family that was most important to him. The love of his children, parents, sisters, and brother is what drove him the most every day. Being surrounded by them is what he loved most.
Raymond will be missed and loved more than can be written. His Family will forever have his memory and love reside within each of them. His passion and legacy will live on within his children for whom he loved more than could ever be explained.
