Ray was first and foremost a devoted Christian and active parishioner of St. Timothy's Episcopal Church. He filled many roles within the church and spent countless hours serving the Lord. Ray was a devoted husband to his wife whom he so dearly loved, a proud father and doting grandfather who provided unconditional love and support. Ray never knew a stranger as he befriended everyone who crossed his path. He greeted people with kindness, a big smile and a humorous comment. Ray was also an avid gardener and was known to share the bounties of his flower gardens with family, friends and neighbors.
