My brother Ray passed away peacefully at Bridgepoint Hospital on September 13, 2024 at the age of 72.
I would like to thank all of the nurses and doctors that took care of Ray over the last few years.
Ray was predeceased by his father Anthony (2001) and mother Kay (2023) and is survived by his brother Stan.
Ray was retired from the CBC and will be missed by many of his former co-workers and friends.
Ray will also be missed by his uncle Chester Psica (Marianne) and their daughters Stephanie and Alex Andra (Mike) and also Diana Bergen of Arizona.
A Memorial Service for Ray will be held on Friday September 27, 2024 at St. John’s Dixie Chapel. Visitation will be held from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. and the service will begin at 12 p.m. Urn burial is to follow at St. John’s Dixie Cemetery.
Donations may be made to Princess Margaret Hospital.
I am so saddened with this news. Ray was one of the “good ones”. He was calm, unflappable and able to calm the hysteria around him – with “its only radio”! I worked with him for the first decade of my career, and he was brilliant… great sensitivity to the work, great ears… and a great sense of humour when it was needed. I will keep many fond memories of Ray. May he rest in peace.
Ray was a dear, very close friend and we had many wonderful times together. In fact, I took this smiling photo of him when we were travelling in Bequia, the Grenadines. He was a gem, so kind, patient, smart, caring, wonderful listener and communicator, great friend and colleague. Such a great loss. RIP, Ray. 🙁
Remembering the great times we had as a CBC Radio “family”. Condolences to Ray’s family
