This is such a terrible news. Condolences and prayers for Ray's family and those whose were close to him in such a difficult time.
I still remember when I first met Ray at Wikimania 2013 Hong Kong, he not just politely asked me to go ahead of a line for food, but kindly agreed to speak over lunch. He shared a lot of interesting stories from his work. Unfortunately I could not upload the video and it might still be in one of my hard drives. Though the empty space he has left in the community could never be filled up, I will try to search the video interview and upload on Commons.
Best! Subhashish

I feel very sad reading this news. He was always friendly and fair. Had always made me smile seeing him.
Expecting to meet him on a Mania is just natural. Knowing will never see him there again is ... very strange.
I will miss him, very very much

He died yesterday. As he was an important member of our community, I think we should make something appropriate so he would be remembered.
