The family would like to announce the sad passing of:
Raymond Trevor McKee
"Ray" passed away peacefully at the age of 99, leaving behind a loving family who will cherish his memory forever.
A devoted husband to his late wife Joyce, a loving Dad to Jacqueline, a doting Grandad to Marisa, David and Loretta (and Lee), a cherished Great Grandad to Bradley, Callum, Sophia, Maicie, Alexander, Brenton, Bailey, Cailen, and Oliver, and a loving Great Great Grandad to Archie, Elio, Jude, and Sade.
Ray was a man of great spirit, known for his love of football and dancing with his beloved wife Joyce. He was a kind and supportive family man who took a genuine interest in the lives of those around him, always ready with advice, guidance, and a gentle nudge in the right direction (whether we liked it or not!).
He had a wonderful sense of humour and loved to laugh, joke, and cause a bit of mischief. Ray was also a man of deep thought and reflection, often sharing his philosophical insights and wisdom with those around him. His strong spiritual faith was a source of comfort, healing and strength to him, and he will be remembered for his compassionate and caring nature.
He will be deeply missed by all who knew him, but his legacy will live on through the countless memories and stories we will treasure forever.
Rest in peace, Ray (Dad/Grandad). You may be gone, but your memory and love will live on in our hearts forever. God bless you always. Until we meet again! xxxx
