Ray was a loving husband, father, grandfather, brother and friend that will be dearly missed by all who knew him. He served in the Army as a medic in Germany from 1963-1965. Ray enjoyed volunteering for multiple organizations including the Houma Military Museum, Habitat for Humanity, Telephone Pioneers and Knights of Columbus. He worked for BellSouth, and after 35 years, retired from AT&T. Ray’s pastimes included going to his camp and fishing, as well as oil painting landscapes and still-life. He enjoyed visiting and never left anyone without a joke and a smile.
The Lapeyrouse Family would like to express a heartfelt thanks to the staff at Haydel Memorial Hospice, Dr. Dicky Haydel and Haydel Clinic, Bayou Home Care and staff at Terrebonne General Medical Center.
