Born on April 29, 1973, in Milford, Connecticut, Ray was a loving son, devoted partner, and cherished friend.

A true enthusiast of music and classic entertainment, Ray had a deep love for Star Wars and found great joy in watching "Match Game" and other iconic game shows of the 1970s. His passion for these timeless stories and shows was a source of many lively conversations and happy moments shared with friends and family.

Ray is survived by his beloved fiancé, his son Corey. Corey’s first born daughter Monet (10) and second born Iyla (2). His son Austin and Austin’s daughter Moxxi (2) and a host of friends and extended family who will forever cherish their memories with him.
