Ray will be sadly missed. I shall miss our phone calls. He was my big brother. He never got round to making that last visit to see us.
To all the family and friends we are heartbroken with our shared loss. Ray aka Santa brought joy to all of our lives and helped shaped me to the person I am. I can only hope he is having his beans and toast with Lenore now and brewing some cider.
Although an uncle far away, and seen infrequently, Ray was an inspiration, taking his career to many places and it was a pleasure to share occasionally with Ray and Lenore.
Ray and Lenore RIP
Many thanks for the live stream. Ray was remembered very fondly by his elder step brother, James, who taught him to build and fly a kite. They reminisced warmly about this special time together more than 70 years later when they spoke on the telephone only a few months before James died in 2017.
Uncle Ray was truly a gentle man. RIP
I feel privileged to have watched Uncle Ray’s celebration of life today. This is from Somerset , England, UK.
I was his step niece…
I remember Uncle Ray with fondness as a child, on visits to his father, my grandfather’s home.
I spent a most lovely few days with Ray & Lenore at their home in Greymouth, New Zealand. They were very kind & treated me as their own.
Consequently, my memory of Uncle Ray is in both senses, of a truly, Gentle – Man…..
Thank you Uncle Ray, I would have loved to have known you better, but am very pleased you had a loving adopted family in Australia.
Best wishes, Jane Xx
