Unfortunately some of Ray's close friends are unable to attend the funeral service. Bryan Lowndes and Sally are in Queensland unable to fly to New Zealand We remember Ray for the times he spent on our yacht. He had a deep love of sailing and we will always remember the effort he was putting into finishing his boat and sorry he didn't get to see it completed. Please pass on best wishes to his family from Bryan, Sally, & Lyla (Qld) and some of his other friends such as Bernard who is unwell and Mandy that could not make it to the service. Kind Regards, Bryan Lowndes & Sally
