Man hit and killed by a drunk driver after leaving an AA meeting

MODESTO (CBS13) – A Modesto man devoted to living a better life was hit and killed by Brandon Howze, who was allegedly drunk at the time. Friends of Ray Galindo say the tragic irony is Galindo was leaving an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting when it happened. 

Galindo spent over a decade in and out of the program. On Tuesday, friends and family attended his funeral.

Shit, I used to work with Ray when I first started out at Safeway, and did the ride share thing with him for a few months.
He wasn't out there very long, maybe a year, before leaving the job for another one that he was more suited for.
He was a really nice guy and very devoted to his family.

      Nah, from what I remember of him, Ray didn't have a mean bone in his body.
      He was one of those guys that if you mentioned offhandedly to him that you had something to do, he'd be at your house the next day saying, "Let's do this, bro!"
