    I met Ray some years ago. He seemed a nice bloke.

    My condolences to his family.

    My condolences also.
    I only met Ray fairly recently and immediately liked the fellow.
    A great loss to the Landrover community as well.

    Indeed a sad day. I only got to know Ray fairly recently and his wealth of knowledge will be sadly missed. He was always willing to have a chat about all things LR, and when talking about Classic Rangies, he got very enthusiastic - my sincere condolences to his family and friends.
    If you need to contact me please email homestarrunnerau@gmail.com - thanks - Gav.

    Oh, very sad news. I didn't know Ray amazingly well but popped in every now and then, in fact only saw him a couple of weeks ago. He was a great guy, very helpful and friendly.

    Hi all
    I went and saw Lyn, Ray's wife (now widow) last night, Ray's funeral is in Romsey on Monday at 2pm
    Lyn has requested as many Landrovers as possible form an honour guard / park in the Main Street of Romsey for the funeral
    So if anyone’s in the neighbourhood please join in

    Thanks
    Jase

    Thank you

    Thank you all for your wonderful words about my wonderful Father.

    The Funeral will be held on Monday at 2pm at St Pauls Church in Romsey Victoria.

    Dad will be leaving from our family home 2 doors down from the Police Station with a precession of Land Rovers following him.

    Dad will be sadly missed.

    Daniel and James will be there to continue Dad's great work.

    Mum and I would like to thank all the wonderful staff at Peter Maccallum cancer hospital.

    Mandy Allford

    I just heard the sad news.
    Sincere condolences to Lyn and family.
    I got to meet Ray many times over the years & found him to be a top bloke.
    I won't forget all the great 4wd stories and how he hung it on toyotas & nissans.
    He was a true Landrover lover.

    I once bought him a slab of crownies for fixing my car 2 days before xmas break.
    They were still sitting there 3 months later.
    I asked why he hadn't drunk them & he said. " I don't drink that crap. Give me a scotch."

    Chin up Daniel & keep looking after the landies that Ray loved.

    Mick
