Ray Gregg (17 Sep 1926 - 27 Jan 2021)

Ray, thanks for your friendship and guidance. You were an inspiration to many..

In memory of Ray X

Forever loved. The most interesting, gentle, and good spirited person I have and will ever know.

Thinking of you all at this difficult time. Remembering your Dad for growing the best tomatoes we’ve ever tasted. Love from Sally, Tim and Molly xx

A friend and colleague summed it up: "if there were more Ray Greggs the world would be a better place."

I had the pleasure of hearing so much about you, I feel like I knew you. Thankful for all the influence you had on your lovely granddaughter Abs xx

Whilst I never had the pleasure of meeting Ray in real life, his warmth radiated through his granddaughter, Jay. Thinking of you all at this difficult time. With all my love, Venya xxx

Thinking of you all at this difficult time. X

The most wonderful and warm grandad anyone could wish for. We were all so lucky to have him in our lives. All our love, Ab and Alex xxx

Ray was liked and respected by all who knew him at work and out of work. Ray will be sorely missed by everyone who had the pleasure to know him.

Remembering Ray always as a caring and gentle man and Uncle, compassionate and humorous and well deserving of his long life and the enduring Love of his family.

A kind and lovely man, and my favourite poet x

In memory of the gentle man with the most lovely smile.

I have many, many fond memories of Ray. I remember him always seeing the positive side to things, having great wisdom, many stories and a natural curiosity about the world and everything in it x

I first met Ray when he got the TO job at Nottingham at the start of the 1980’s when I was a young 17 year old telecoms trainee on the railway. He was really friendly and helpful, and over the next 10 years before his retirement he not only taught me so much work wise, but also had so many stories of old days that I found fascinating. Genuinely nobody had a bad word to say about him at work. I kept in touch with him regularly after his retirement and met up on the old boys nights out and Christmas get togethers we had, He was on good form at the last railway get together he made in July 2019 and he got to see the railway photo albums I made up going back to before I started, some of which he appeared in. I last spoke to him on Christmas Eve when he wasn’t so good, but when I spoke to him 4 weeks earlier we had a really good chat and he remembered so much, telling me about his days as a signaller at Burton before he joined the S&T department. A true gent who will be sadly missed.
