Ray Harrell, 92, died Sunday, December 12, 2021 at Memorial Health University Medical Center in Savannah.
The Swainsboro, GA native was a longtime resident of Franklin, NC before moving to Savannah in 2020.
Boots was a retired U.S. Army veteran serving with the National Security Agency. He was predeceased by his parents, James William and Reba Grizzard Harrell; two brothers, Jaybird and Tom Harrell; two sisters, Sara Harrell Ryan and Ann Harrell Bryan.
Surviving are two children, Steven A. Harrell and Frances Anne Harrell; sister, Rebecca Pullin; three grandchildren, Caitlin and Conner Gilroy, and Junior Harrell; and his faithful and devoted companion, Lola.

Sorry for your loss. I did not get to know him well as I would haved like to. Boots was always upbeat even though he dealt with a debilitating disease on a daily basis. May he rest in peace.
