Ray met Lillian Whitney in 1938, at a party at the Delano Methodist Church, where they later married on December 21, 1940. They were a very happy couple for 66 years, until he lost Lillian on December 26, 2006. Although Uncle Ray leaves no children, he leaves many nieces and nephews who couldn't have asked for a better or funnier uncle.
