Ray was born in Morris, MN on September 14, 1939 to Walter and Bertha Nibbe. He grew up with his 3 siblings, James, Walter, and Francis. He spent many summers working on his uncle's farm. He attended Morris High School and graduated in 1957. He worked at the MN-DOT for 40+ years. He married his beloved of 52 years, Bobbi (Kreft) on June 27, 1971 at The House of Prayer in Richfield, MN. Ray was a proud father to Gretchen, Chris (Susan), Andréa (Tim), Stacey (deceased), and Stephanie (Chris).
He spent many years golfing and traveling all over the world with Bobbi and many friends! He especially loved visiting the Caribbean Islands and wintering in Green Valley, AZ. Ray was quick to join in a game of cards and never turned down an opportunity for ice cream.
Ray spent a lifetime praising the Lord with his beautiful deep voice. He sang in numerous choirs, including the WLC Chorale and the Celebration Ensemble.
Ray enjoyed being with his grandchildren, Ryan, Katie, Allison, Christopher, Matthew, Greta, Emily, Sammi, and Simon. He was also blessed by many great- grandchildren.
