Miss you Raymond, keep smiling wherever you are xx

Dear Ray, a chap who never sought or wanted to be the centre of attention, but always with time for the man next to him at the bar. A family member who wanted to chat about the latest crane repair, a black and white film they both loved, his garden or his favourite past-time, horse racing. He will be missed by all those who knew him and loved him for what he was. A true gentle man. Love Anne-Marie, Barry Jack and Harry xx

Dear Ray I was so truly sorry to hear the sad news of your passing. Your warm personality and great sense of fun will be missed. Gone but not forgotten ... we will miss you. Alex D xxxx

Dad, I wish I could have you back a while. I miss your laughter, I miss your smile. I would hold you tightly and never let you go and tell you how much I miss you so. Always your little Looby. Love you xxxx

To our dear Ray, We have a lifetime of cherished memories to hold close. You will be so dearly missed but never forgotten. …loved ones never leave us if they live on the lips of the living… Farewell dear Ray x

My dearly loved brother, I cannot remember a time without you Ray. What lovely special times we enjoyed, you were so important to our family and leave us with memories that will be cherished forever. When someone you love becomes a memory the memory becomes a treasure.

RAY Time has come to say goodbye. The years have passed and what wonderful times we all have had. Families friends you were there for us all sisters brothers-in-law children grandchildren nieces and nephews. You were the best. With love Ray, forever in our thoughts.

My happiness you were,you are,and always you will be.

His life a beautiful memory His absence a silent grief

When someone becomes a memory the memory becomes a treasure

Ray was always there to put a smile on your face. He brought love and laughter into our lives and would always help if he could with advice. His spirit will forever be in our hearts. What the heart has once loved , it will never lose. Rest in peace Ray

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are. Speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
