Ray Brewer

Mr. Ray C. Brewer, age 92, of Dover, went home to be with the Lord on Thursday, December 4, 2025, at his residence, surrounded by his loving family. He was born on October 21, 1933, in Toledo, OH, the son of the late Clarence Ross Brewer and Thresa Tice Brewer.

Ray dedicated his life in service to others. He proudly served in the United States Navy and was a veteran of the Korean War.

He was a long-time member of LBL Church of Christ. Ray cherished the town of Dover and often said, "You couldn't find a better place to live."

In addition to his parents, he is preceded in death by his brother.
He is survived by his devoted wife of 71 years, Ted Brewer; his son, David Brewer (Sue); his daughter, Denise Moore Glover (Rex); five grandchildren; eight great-grandchildren; and two great-great-grandchildren.
