Ray Allen Dudley, 1925 - 2011,  Listed in "Artists of Utah". 

“Ray A. Dudley was born on April 8, 1925 in St. Louis, Missouri. He passed away of natural causes on November 10, 2011 at St. Mark's Hospital. He is preceded in death by his wife Reba Dudley. He is survived by two sisters, Lucille Lamoreaux and Helen Olsen.

Ray and his wife moved to Salt Lake City in the late 50's and he continued to pursue his artistic abilities. He has sold many paintings. He has won many blue ribbons and "Best of the Show" at the Utah State Fair.

Even when Ray was in the nursing home (St. Joseph's Villa), he continued his painting skills and did several lovely watercolor paintings. He will be greatly missed. The family wishes to thank St. Joseph's Villa and all his caregivers for the excellent care given to Ray while he was there.”
