Ray: A truly valued friend with whom I have shared countless happy memories.

My thoughts are with you all at this very sad time

When I was first promoted to Telex Ray was my Senior Manager he helped me to adjust to a managerial role and yes he could have a dry sense of humour. It was a pleasure to have known him.
RIP Ray

So many years of fantastic friendship!

I worked for Ray in Product Development in Telex in 1990s.First time I met him he was doing a crossword in his office. The difficult one.
He was a Excellent Boss ,astute,clever. If I had one word to describe to him it would be Integrity. My group was in a political charged area in BT so he needed that quality.
He laid the foundations for the success of SecureStream 300 and Telex Refile.( Earned millions for BT).
Rest in Peace Ray.

With love BASSAN family

Sympathy and condolences to all

I worked in Ray's team for a number of years before he retired, also way back in the 70's I worked in Ray's team doing Factory Acceptance Testing at Plessey's factory in Poole. There were at least 6 guys on this project and we all stayed at a hotel in Bournemouth called the Durley Dean. This hotel was something out of the 20's but the food was superb. The evening meal was very much "dress for Dinner" not black tie but smart ! Ray being Ray choose not to conform, the rest of us did and enjoyed the food. One evening early on, Ray had been for a walk in his trusty Parka, and on his return decided to join his team in the restaurant, before he made our table, he was intercepted by the restaurant manager and frogmarched out of the restaurant, much to the amusement of his team. I can still visualise the indignation on his face. For once Ray was on the receiving end, good times, not many like Ray, R.I.P
