Suddenly, on May 2, 2022, Raymond Thomas Pierce Tully, "Ray", passed.  He was just 61.

Born in Baltimore to Raymond C. Tully and Delores Pierce, he would grow up in Baltimore and move to our area in the early 1990's.  Following his graduation from Severna Park High School he worked for 25 years as a book binder in the printing industry, finally retiring in 1999.

Ray was a very simple person who like the outdoors, enjoyed fishing and boating, old cars and Harley Davidson motorcycles.  He was an approachable person who was kind hearted but very direct;  You always knew where you stood with him.  Ray lived in the moment and was always there to lend a hand to those in need.  He never said no and asked for nothing in return.  Ray loved to talk and was "always happy to see you," and was very sentimental.    It was said, "what he loved more than anything, was being a dad," and he was a devoted father and husband.

Surviving Ray is his wife, Donna Lee (Gray) who he has been with since there teen years.  He will be deeply missed by his beloved daughter, Victoria "Tori" Frances Tully as well as his loving sisters, Regina Tully and Brenda Ross.  He will be cherished in the memory of Bill Ross, his brother-in-law, who he was very close to.  Ray joins in passing his dear brother Douglas Tully and is reunited with "his girl," his favorite dog "Lizzie."  He will forever be remembered by many other family members and friends who cared so much for him.
