A beautiful tribute to Uncle Ray.
I have great memories of our times with both Auntie Janice, Uncle Ray and all our cousins.
Thinking of you.

Unfortunately I was unable to share the service for Ray’s life with my beautiful wife and the rest of my in-laws today. It was a profound service that celebrated a life of a genuine loving family man with an accomplished work life. I was welcomed into this family with open arms and although the world is a bit sadder without Ray in it, it is pleasing to think of Ray and Janice united again
A beautiful Mass and a fitting tribute to a lovely man. He has left us with great memories. He would have been so proud of you all today.
Love Janet and Tony.
Such a beautiful and moving service for an amazing man.
I’m sorry I didn’t ever have the honour or privilege of knowing him.
My heartfelt sympathy to all his family, especially Pauline, Ian, Amelia and James. xoxo
Such a beautiful service for a wonderful man. We’re so proud to pass on the Drew name to your Grandsons: Remy, Asher and Luca. We hope they follow in your footsteps of kindness and goodwill.
My thoughts and prayers are with Kevin, Cath, Ange, Pauline, Jen, Michael, Peter, Barb and Barry today.
Rest in peace Ray ❤️
Just watched the Requiem Mass for Ray. We have fond memories of his Scouting days at St Agnes in Highett.
Our Sincere Sympathy and love to all the family
A beautiful service for such a wonderful man. We feel truly blessed to pass on the Drew name to your Grandsons: Remy, Asher and Luca. A true gentleman and such a kind soul. May our boys follow in your footsteps of kindness and goodwill.

What a moving service, it was a great celebration of his life and values. He will be missed, but leaves a great legacy in his family.
Our thoughts are with you all.
I remember Uncle Ray as a quiet man of few words, happy amongst a busy vibrant home. Each time we visited he was known to be located in the garage, with his head under a car bonnet tinkering on anther project.
And when he came into the home to say hello, I recall gazing at his weathered hands with bruises, nicks and ingrained grease.
Love to all my cousins, and condolesecnce on the loss of such a caring and dedicated father.

Our thoughts are with you…

To my dearest Uncle Ray, you were a wonderful uncle, loving, caring, kind and compassionate. I know Mum (Annette) was very grateful for your and Aunty Janice’s support and friendship. You will be sadly missed but forever in our heats. May you now be at peace with Aunty Janice, Lawrie, my dad Chris, Grandma and Papa.
To the family, we are thinking of you.
Matt, Sera and Thomas Drew
It was a privilege to bear witness to the stories, photos and beautiful music that defined your Dad’s life.
Thank you for having us. Deepest sympathy to you all.
Only great memories I have of this amazing uncle. A quiet achiever indeed. Helping people was his reward. RIP uncle Ray.
