Albert Ray Fillingim of Cantonment, Florida, residing in Milton, Florida went to be with the Lord after a motorcycle accident on State Road 87 in Milton, Florida. Ray, as he was known to all his friends and family, was the kind of man that would give the shirt off his back to help someone if he could. He was always full of life and never met a stranger. He had a very large personality and a heart that was even bigger. A true brother to many with a kind heart and many colorful stories. Ray was always just a phone call away when you needed him. He was always supportive and touched so many lives in his 28 years on Earth. Ray loved to do mechanic work, go mud riding, shoot pool, fish, and go camping. He always loved a good bonfire with good friends. You could always find him working on something or telling a story about something he had worked on. He had a passion for being the life of the party. Ray will be missed by so many people.
