Ray - a lovely man who had time for you when you met up , Always welcomed you with a big smile n hug . His glass was always of the half full and never the half empty and his generosity was second to none. Our catchups were always special .

A great friend of my late brother Chris and me through him. A great rugby player and the reason I could not play flanker for Plymouth Albion, so OPMs for me.Always cheerful and never spoke ill of anyone. If only there were more like him in the wold. Will be so sadly missed. Nick Partridge.
