He was predeceased by his father Joseph Tuck, mother Madeline Tuck (Depres), sister Marlene Tuck and sister Jeannette Lafreniere. Ray was born in St. Boniface, December 9, 1945 and resided in St. Vital with his mother, who he loved so very much. Ray worked at CN Rail for 36¾years. His passion was fishing in Lac du Bonnet with his friends, especially his beloved friend Harry Dewilt. He also loved gardening and many happy times with his grandson Jace. Ray made many friends over the years with his friendly attitude, quick-witted remarks and his great sense of humour that made everybody laugh. Ray had unconditional love for everyone. We will forever miss him. A special thank you to Brian Machdanz for being there for us throughout this difficult time.
