Raymond Amos
January 2, 1929 — March 16, 2014
Raymond L. Amos, 85, retired Pipefitter Business Manager Local 533, has joined his wife, Deloris in death, on Sunday, March 16, 2014.
Those that knew him well and loved him, called him Leonard. It's hard not to remember his wonderful sense of humor. Him telling a joke, often one you had heard a hundred times before, and still laughing like you were hearing it for the first time. He was an eternal optimist, living his life with a positive attitude.
He loved going to "the boat" to play poker and indulging in the all-you-can-eat buffet. We teased him about having the biggest sweet tooth in Kansas.
He had quite the fashion sense often wearing a cardigan sweater and we rarely saw him without sporting one of his many hats.
Missing his love and laughter is his family. Son and daughter-in-law, Steve and Kim Amos. Daughter and son-in-law Sheryl and David Allison; grandchildren, Kris and Amy, Meaghan and Justin, Nathan; great-grandson, Lucas and numerous relatives from all over the country. He is leaving a void that can never be filled.
Family will receive friends at 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Thursday, March 20, 2014 at the D.W. Newcomer's Sons – Johnson County Chapel, 11200 Metcalf Ave, Overland Park, KS 66210. Funeral Service will be at 12:30 p.m. on Friday, March 21, 2014 at the Johnson County Chapel. Burial will follow at Chapel Hill Memorial Gardens, 701 N. 94th St, Kansas City, KS 66112.
