Raymond Patrick Bussells, 56, of Drexel Hill, passed on Monday, September 25, 2023,

Ray was predeceased by his parents, Louis D. Bussells, Jr. and Dorothy Bussells. He is survived by his brother, Louis D. Bussells, brother Stephen, and sisters Barbara Massello and Patti Duffy and their families.
Ray was a happy soul with a good sense of humor, and, despite many health issues, was always smiling and quick with a laugh. He will be missed by all who knew him.
