RAYMOND HARVEY LOEPPKY

It is with deep sadness that we announce the death of Ray Loeppky on June 15, 2021, in Carberry, Manitoba, at the age of 74 years.
He leaves to mourn his sister Sandy (Rick), brother Allan (Rachelle), niece Dana (David), nephew Michael (Fae) and great nephew Bryce. Ray was predeceased by his parents Ben and Mary Loeppky.
Ray was born in Portage la Prairie, Manitoba, on February 21, 1947. Shortly after he was born the family moved to Winnipeg. When Ray was a teenager, his parents purchased a dairy farm near Sidney, Manitoba. He worked alongside his dad on the farm until he began work at Carnation Foods in Carberry.
In 1977 Ray moved to Carberry. Soon after he joined the Carberry Fire Department and later became Deputy Fire Chief. In 1987 Ray moved to Winnipeg and began work at what is now Mid Canada Bearing. He worked there until his retirement in 2012.
Ray was an avid hunter and fisherman, enjoying many adventures over the years.
In 2020 his health began failing him. His family made the decision to move him back to Carberry, where he resided at Daughter on Call until his passing.
Forever in our hearts, never forgotten.
A celebration of life will take place at a later date once restrictions allow.
