One of the legends of this game, for certain. Very decent person too from all accounts.

Sad to hear of his passing.

Lovely man. Went to watch Pot Black at Pebble Mill in 1978/79. Can't remember exact details of the format, but I think we saw at least 8 different players (brilliant day out). At a break my mate's dad told me to go and get some autographs. Got both Ray's and Doug Mountjoy's. Both lovely men/humble. More recently (last year) I met Mark Williams at the Centaur in Cheltenham. Again, a lovely men. Although I'm very much an English man, as a snooker fan, I'm a huge fan of the Welsh. RIP Ray - absolute legend.

Nice memories Baldwin. Sad to think Doug's gone a couple of years and now Ray too. And Terry not doing so well either unfortunately.

What the heck is this? Is it meant to be a joke or attention seeking?
