We are so sad to hear that Ray has passed. He will always be remembered for all our treatments over the last 20 odd years. He was always interested in our families and he and Peter had many a long chat. We are going to miss those visits. Our condolences to you Alfie and your family. Sending all our love and we hope to see you again. Lyn and Peter Catchpole

Grant and I were so sad to hear about Ray's sudden passing. Ray and Alfie have been a huge part of our lives for around 20 years now, and in that time we have felt the healthiest we have been for years, there was nothing that Ray couldn't fix! And Ray was always interested in what was going on in our lives, and also was also always asking about our daughter and our 2 grand-daughters. Such a real gentleman and so kind and caring. We are going to miss you, Ray, there will never be anyone like you. Sending all our love and deepest condolences to Alfie and family.

Devastated to hear of the sad news, sending lots of love to the family. Ray was a huge inspiration in my life, and everything he stood for. I can wholeheartedly say that he changed the course of my families health for the better just over 10 years ago, and we will be forever grateful. We moved down South nearly 5 years ago, and would often say the worst thing about moving was not being able to go see Ray. Such a kind, knowledgeable, inspirational man that we will forever be grateful to. He was one of a kind, the best kind. Thank you Ray for everything, you were and are a true legend.

We first met when you had your business in Mairangi Bay and that was 64 years ago, how do you thank someone who has helped you for all those years and is a legend. It was truly an honour to of known you. I wrote this you. Friendship is the golden thread that ties our hearts and souls together and there are some who bring a light so great to the world that even after they have gone the light remains.” — and this is how I will always remember you Dr Ray. You will be solely missed. My deepest condolences to Alfie and family.
