Thank You
Uncle Ray, your incredible sense of humour will be how we remember you, cracking jokes with a cheeky smile and shining blue eyes. You could always make us laugh even in the hospital when you told Troy and I that even thinking about girls in bikinis didn’t interest you at the moment followed by your cheeky grin!! You always lived life to the fullest and we will deeply miss you.
Thanks for making an impact on so many people just for being you.
Our deepest sympathy to Gayle, Vic, Meaghan, Spud and their families
Someone like you can never really leave this world as a legend lives on forever……
Love always Beck, Damian, Bailey, Rhyse, Keely and Jay xoxoxo
Loved uncle, I held you close to my heart.
You were such a bright and bubbly person, you always had a smile on your face. Your laugh was contagious and you had caring personality.
You were always there to comfort me in sad times. We watched each other’s children grow up together.
The day you held my son in your arms, you told me that you would have a son next and they would grow up as best friends. I will miss you, Rest in Peace Raymond.
Sending love to Gayle, Victoria, Meaghan, Ryan, Galen, Rob, Adriana, Mikaylah, Lily and Tate xxxx
Raymond my little brother,
thank you for all the fun and good times we had and all the warm hugs and kisses you gave.
Love always Gloria xx

To Raymond Wightman A.K.A Wighty
Such fond memories of a man who I admired. You were such an influence on the person I have become and I will cherish my memories of you taking Spud and I riding bikes together & skiing at Bonnie Doon.
Taking you for a cruise in my convertible and seeing the look on your face was priceless.
I’m so thankful you got to meet my beautiful daughter. We had some great times together & I will miss you.
Love always, Troy, Shelley & Saige
R.I.P Mate, may the Land Cruiser Troopy always be with you
Ray, you will be missed but I’m sure you will be joking, laughing & having a good time wherever you are.
R.I.P.
Love Trish and Family xx
