Sleep in peace Ray, love always, Ms. Chelsea Dawn

Just came across this and want his family to know That Ray was a great buddy of mind when we both was station at Myrtle Beach SC. we had a band there call the Honky Tonkx. I lost contact with Ray back in the late 1864 where i left a job I had that i left and forgote to get my addres book with his name and phone number Too all of his family I want you too know that You had a father that you can always be proud of I am so sorry for all of you ...Goodby buddy

I remember Ray from his days at WNUE/ WFTW "The Wake Up Call" radio show. One day on a whim I allowed one of my Daughters (Andrea) to call in to tell Ray a joke. Ray was so sweet and warm. He took to Andrea and her sisters as if they were his own. Which led to an almost daily call in/sing along. Ray holds a very special place in my family's hearts and will be missed. Rest in Peace Ray

Sorry to hear about Ray. There's not many people who are at a radio station before 6 in the morning who are in a good mood, but Ray was always happy to be up doing the news and was always looking forward to his next chance to go play for an audience. A truly nice guy.

I knew Ray for many years, but in 1985 he rose to a new level in my life. He was playing at the Little Bar. I felt safe there, going alone to listen to him with Jimmy Roberson and Ruben Howell. On January 13th at 2:20 am, I was there with a girlfriend and Billy Blue came in, because he loved listening to Ray and learned a great deal from him. Billy and I met that night and in less than 3 months we will celebrate our 34th wedding anniversary. Ray brought us together and we will miss him...

My father was a huge fan of Ray’s. He would go watch him perform every chance he could get. In time they became friends and from time to time Ray would come and visit my home. He was a talented man and a joy to be around. He made my father happy.

Ray was a jewel who radiated a dazzling light of joy, and energy and love. He was generous and genuine. Enjoy playing with the saints and angels Ray.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

A great entertainer. Our most heartfelt sympathy for the family's loss.
