Raymond Leon Quincy was born in Hannibal, Missouri on June 9, 1952. He passed away at age 73 of natural causes on July 5, 2005.

Ray was the youngest of three boys born to Arnold Wayne Quincy and Marguiet Marie Scranton Quincy. His brother, Gary, is the eldest, and his twin brother, Richard, preceded him by ten minutes.

The family lived in Barry, Illinois until the death of their father in 1961. Ray moved to Anaheim, CA with his mother and brothers where he quickly acclimated to life as a “California Kid.” Ray loved everything California: the sun, the sea, the mountains and mostly the temperate weather. He loved camping with his friends, playing baseball and most especially, he loved playing golf.

Ray enlisted in the Army after high school and served as helicopter and aircraft mechanic in Germany. He rose to the rank of Sergent. In 1975 he received an honorable discharge from the Army and received the National Defense Service Medal.

Ray moved to St. George, Utah to be close to family. He met and married his wife Chyrisa and for ten years was a loving stepfather to her two sons, Mark and Bobby.

After his stepfather, Edward Jones, passed away, Ray moved in with Marguiet to care for her and her home. He was her handy man, gardener, and primary caregiver until she entered her current residence at Ovation Memory Care.

Ray is preceded in death by his father, his stepfather and his step-son, Mark. He is survived by his mother Marguiet, his older brother, Gary (Jane), his twin brother, Richard (Christine) and many nieces and nephews. Ray will be remembered by friends and family for his kindness, generosity, and loyalty.
