Raymond Charles Almy attended the little country school that was on the north east corner of Huff Road and the Premption Road. At the same time his future wife, Mima Bassett, whose parents lived on the Premption Road, attended the same school.

In the years 1896-1900, Raymond attended the Keuka Institute. Mima Bassett attended the Institute during the years 1898-1900. Raymond graduated from Keuka College in 1902 and went on to Syracuse University, where he graduated from the college of medicine. He married his old schoolmate Mima and for many years conducted a very extensive and popular medical practice in the city of Auburn, NY.

Raymond Charles Almy is buried in Hillside Cemetery, Dundee. His stone simply states "a beloved physician." His cousin, Clarence Joseph Gannon (1232-1272-521) wrote "in my senior year at Syracuse University (1920) my finances ran out and Dr. Raymond C. Almy helped fill the gap in my budget. So I have retained a very special place in my heart for the memory of a very fine doctor, a gentleman in every sense of the word, a friend and a cousin."
