Ray's oldest cousin with husband Jordan send our sympathy and love to the family, with many prayers!!

Uncle Ray, you will be missed, but always remembered for your jokes and kind heart. The kids have such fond memories of you fishing with them. Your deep voice, calling bad fireworks "duds", and history of taking in stray animals is what I will remember most. You knew how to make friends and treat people well. Basford Lake won't be the same without you.

My sympathy for your family. I am a friend of his children Liz & Abe.

I went to Alexander Hamilton school with Ray, or as we all called him, Punky. He was such a nice, fun guy. He always had a smile on his face. We were also neighbors at a time when neighborhood was so important to us as kids. I'm so sorry to hear of his passing, he was special.

So sorry to here about my buddy RAY I always called Ray punky when we were growing up as kids. There's not a lot of us that knewRay better than I did I've known RAY 65 years. I always felt growing up I was part of the Emery family. Ray was always a lot of fun to be with . I know that he Will be missed by all his classmates work related friends and his family . God bless you my friend , And my thoughts and prayers are with his sisters and brother, His kids and grandkids.

Ray and I were high school classmates and "across the creek" neighbors. I remember his great sense of humor and wonderful family. I am saddened he passed away so young. Rest in peace "Punk"!
