It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of John David Ray, who left us peacefully on August 21,2024 at the age of 61. Born on January 6,1963 in Fort Wayne, Indiana, John was the beloved son of Charles Len and Margaret Anne Ray.
John was a man of kindness, integrity, humor, and honesty. He dedicated his life to his family, always putting their needs and happiness above all else. John had a deep love for reading, history, and discussing alien conspiracy theories, which brought lively conversations and curiosity into the lives of those around him. He always had a smile for everyone and was the first to lend a helping hand, making him a cherished friend and coworker.
He is survived by his loving wife, Karen, his three children, Thomas, Gabrielle, and Benjamin, eight grandchildren, and two siblings, Anne and Susan. John was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, and brother, and his legacy of love and perseverance will live on in those who loved him.
He will be deeply missed, but his spirit will forever guide us.
