Ray was a fun loving, kind, gentle man who would do anything for anyone. He was born in Edmonton, AB, and spent most of his life in Edmonton and the surrounding area. He loved the outdoors, did various sports, had a golf membership, had football season tickets, enjoyed socializing with family/friends, and going to live theatre. Everything he did was with passion and to the absolute best of his ability.
