Angel and family, I am very sorry to hear of the passing of such a dear and loving father and husband. My thoughts are with you always Alannah
I had the pleasure of working with Ray for the past 13 years at Labatt. We both started the same day and I realized very quickly what an amazing man he was. One thing for certain was how proud he was of his family and friends and the overall joy he brought every day. Ray was one of the good ones . Rest in Peace brother.
We were saddened to hear of Ray’s passing. He was so full of life and joy every time we met. Our condolences to the Farhat families as you grieve. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Love Dave and Judy Hickson

Ray was truly one of a kind. He had one of the kindest hearts and had a way of making everyone around him feel valued and appreciated. No matter the day, Ray always found a way to put a smile on people’s faces with his humour, warmth, and genuine kindness. I had the privilege of working with Ray for a few summers at Labatt, and I will always be grateful for the memories, conversations, and laughs we shared. He brought so much positivity to the workplace and left a lasting impression on everyone lucky enough to know him. Sending my deepest condolences to his family, friends, and everyone who had the honour of knowing him. Rest in peace my friend.
Uncle Ray thank you for your warm welcomes and smiles when I saw you. I am sure Jesus will welcome you with the same love you gave people on earth. Rest easy and give grandma Skiyye, Shafika and Ammo Elie a big hug for me🙏❤️🩹
On behalf of our family, we extend our deepest condolences to the entire Farhat family at this time. Our thoughts and prayers are with each of you at this time. Much love to you all. Rest In Peace, Ray.
Ray was just a special soul He was loved and loved always! A blessing to many as real as genuine as they come!! It came natural to him to be a good soul and do good always! May you rest easy and at peace Ray Ray my brother! And remember like we always said “ this the Niners year go Niners “ Love you brother
Ray was everything I admire in a man. An angel gone too soon. I'm grateful to have had the chance to know him. I wish I could be more like Ray. Rest in peace brother you will never be forgotten 🙏
I had the pleasure of working with Ray at Labatt, and he was one of the kindest souls I have ever known. His love for his family, his gentle nature, and his happy demeanor, will be the things I remember most. I will miss him and keep you all in my prayers.
It was heartbreaking to hear the sad news of our friend Ray’s passing…..I worked with my friend Ray at Ford for many years, my wife has known him and his family for many years. His love of classic cars ran deep! I remember fondly his GTO back in the day! Later in life we followed one another on FB and talked about my VWs and classic cars in general. I believe his son built a Camero, and I got pics of it periodically! In closing I will wish his wife Dorothy and their children peace in the coming days. God bless you guys!!
