April 25, 2008 – November 4, 2023
Reginald “Reggie” Evan Ray, 15, of Bedford, went to be with the Lord in the early morning hours of
Saturday, November 4, 2023, in Bedford.
Reggie was born on April 25, 2008, in Bedford IN, to Heath Ray and Rebecca Morrow. He was a member of the freshman class at Bedford North Lawrence High School.
He enjoyed fishing, hunting, riding dirtbikes, playing video games with his cousin Elijah, working on and admiring trucks, and hanging out with his cousins Jaxson, Isaac, Baylee, and Tanner. Reggie loved traveling to Florida with his Dad to see his Grandpa, Grandma, and his Aunt Lea. Reggie was an extremely giving person and he always took the time to mentor young kids. Reggie was a character, making people laugh was his favorite, especially while doing an impression of his dad to push his buttons. He enjoyed singing in the car with his mom and “schooling” her in basketball.
Reggie never liked to see anyone go without, he would make sure they wouldn’t by giving away his own possessions, and money, or even leading others to do the same.
He loved Christmas and was always eager to help put up the Christmas trees.
He had a smile a mile wide and he loved to make other people laugh. Reggie was an avid sports enthusiast, especially basketball and football. Giannis Antetokounmpo of the Milwaukee Bucks was one of his biggest heroes.
Surviving to cherish his memory are his father, Heath, of Mathews, IN; mother, Rebecca, Mollie Kaserman, and sister Victoria Jacobs, all of Bloomington, IN; paternal grandfather, Reginald “Reggie” Ray and wife, Anne Ray, of Venice, FL; maternal grandmother, Donna Morrow of Oolitic, IN; aunts and uncles; Terry Ray, John Ray, Seth (Sandy) Ray, Lea Niglio (Rhett Smith), Vincent Niglio, Victor Niglio, Julianna Niglio(Charlie Githler), Anatole (Fanette) Garcenot, Carrie(Josh) Tolliver, Brandon(Michelle) Morrow, Amber(Matt) Taylor, Cody(Whitney) Morrow, Fawna(Andrew) Myers, Ben(Tara) Morrow, Brian Lake, Karly(Timmy) Terrell, Katrina (Daniel) Craig, Jeremy Mullis and numerous cousins and friends.
