Stuart is preceded in death by his mother, Julia Lane Harmon.
Ray was a loving husband, father, G-Daddy, son, and brother. Ray was married to the love of his
life for 38 years. The apple of his eye was his first grandchild, SJ. Although, he never got the
opportunity to meet his second grandchild, Noa; he was already in love with her. If you asked
him about his children, he would gladly tell you how proud he was of them. He dearly loved his
brother, Jeff. Not a day went by that they didn’t talk. Ray was a 12-year survivor of Multiple
Sclerosis. However, he did not want to be known for the disease but for his faith. He was saved
on September 21, 1975. He loved his church family. He was a faithful member of Hilltop Church for
the last 18 years.
