Ray's journey in life was marked by dedication, both to his professional career and his cherished passions. He spent many fulfilling years as the Manager of Konica Minolta's bizhub Image Center, Office Services and Community Relations and left a lasting impact on colleagues and friends alike. Ray's commitment to excellence and his unwavering professionalism were evident in all aspects of his work.
Yet, beyond his professional endeavors, Ray found his greatest joys in the simple pleasures of life. An avid golfer, he found solace and joy on the green fairways, where he honed his skills and created lasting memories with friends and family. As a devoted fan of the Detroit Red Wings, Ray's passion for hockey knew no bounds, and he cheered for his beloved team with unwavering loyalty.
Summers held a special place in Ray's heart, particularly those spent at Matunuck Beach (MTK) in Rhode Island. The salty breeze, warm sands, and endless waves provided the backdrop for cherished memories with his loved ones, creating a bond that would last a lifetime.
Ray's love for music was another cornerstone of his life. Whether strumming his guitar or listening to his favorite tunes, he found comfort and joy in the melodies that filled his days. His love for music was matched only by his love for his family.
Ray shared a deep and abiding love with his cherished wife, Carolyn (Bein) Embury, with whom he built a life filled with love, laughter, and cherished memories. He was a pillar of support and a source of strength to his two sons, Andrew R. Embury and his wife, Kim of Somers, and Chad E. Embury and his wife, Morgan of Berlin, along with his five grandchildren, Dawson, Emmalyn, Dylan, Sawyer, and Cole, who were the lights of his life, and he cherished every moment spent with them.
In addition to his immediate family and many dear friends, Ray is survived by his sister, Marilyn Attinger, and her husband, Jim, of Arizona. He was predeceased by his brother, William Embury.
