Ragen had the biggest heart and was a loving son, father, brother, grandfather, and friend. His passion for country music was like no other, and his talent for singing allowed him to share that passion with the world. Ragen’s career in country music allowed him to work with some of the best talent in the industry and to achieve so many things including an appearance at the Grand Ole Opry. Later in life Ragen enjoyed using his talent for the benefit of others including a local volunteer fire department. He was truly loved by all that knew him and was a friend to everyone.
