Good days for Ray's!

On Wednesday, we noted that Ray's Candy Store was hosting a GoFundMe for owner Ray Alvarez ... and his shop at 113 Avenue A "to help ensure he can keep his bills paid and his doors open for as long as he wants!" 

And there was a big outpouring for Ray, who turns 90 in January... the fund just past $40,000 this morning...

WOW!!! THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR THE OUTPOURING OF SUPPORT!!! JUST UNBELIEVABLE. SO HUMBLED. ON CLOUD NINE! PLEASE COME VISIT AND SAY HI ANYTIME. AND HELP SPREAD THE WORD.

SPECIAL SHOUT OUT TO @EVGRIEVE AND @NEWYORKNICO! 🙏https://t.co/94vhtfXXtA#fundrayscandystore pic.twitter.com/GzsMpljgkp
