Morgan Vernon Ray, Jr. - December 29, 1937 – May 27, 2025

With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Morgan Vernon Ray, Jr., who left this world on May 27, 2025, at the age of 87. A devoted family man, Morgan was a loyal brother and the proud father of a blended family of three sons and two daughters, and the cherished grandfather of eight grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Della Marie Ray, whom he now joins in eternal rest.

Morgan dedicated his life to hard work and service. After graduating from high school, he answered the call to serve his country, spending time stationed in Germany with the U.S. Army. Upon returning home, he built his career with determination and passion, owning and operating Hoosier Office Machines before later becoming the co-owner of DMR Cleaners.

A true salesman at heart, Morgan had the rare gift of connecting with people, striking up conversations with anyone he met. His warmth made strangers feel like old friends, and he carried a story for every occasion.

Morgan’s legacy lives on through the love he gave, the laughter he inspired, and the connections he fostered. He will be deeply missed but never forgotten.
