USMC Pfc. Raymond A. Ranelucci, Jr., was born and raised in Rensselaer County. He was a student of Averill Park HS during the Viet Nam War Era.  In 1963, his patriotism called him to serve and he joined the United States Marine Corps. After graduating boot camp, he immediately was deployed to Viet Nam.

In 1964, Raymond lost his life in battle.

This Memorial Fund was developed by his family and friends to remember him and the sacrifice he made, serving his country and to promote the awareness of the United States Armed Forces.
