It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our brother, Kevin on Friday, June 13, 2025. He was born September 20, 1961, to Virgil and Norma Ray. He was an avid LSU fan, as well as drag racing and NASCAR. He also had an interest in airplanes. Kevin is survived by his sisters, Lisa Babin (Jay), Denise Robinson (James); brothers, Joey Ray (Pam), and Alan Ray (Dawn); godchildren, Jennifer Babin Torres and Derek Ray, as well as numerous nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, and other family members. Kevin is preceded in death by his parents, Virgil and Norma Ray; paternal grandparents; maternal grandparents, and great niece, Ariella.
