Raymond George Millson (Ray)

It is with sadness and love that we announce the peaceful passing of Ray Millson, surrounded by his family at Elmwood Place at the age of 86 on October 2, 2025. Ray was the dearly loved and loving husband of Peg (née Tapp) for 62 wonderful years; cherished father of Suzanne Millson (Shawn) and Scott Millson (Alex) and adoring Papa to Brianna, Brooke and Lucas.

For 35 years, Ray dedicated his career to the patients and community at St. Thomas Psychiatric Hospital, where his compassion and commitment touched the lives of many. His professional life was a true reflection of his selfless and thoughtful character. Beyond his career, Ray gave his time to Scouts Canada, serving as a leader for thirty years. His enthusiasm for organizing and participating in events, such as the ScouTrees Fundraiser and Apple Day, truly inspired many he mentored.

He enjoyed working alongside his son Scott on countless renovation projects. Known for always having the right tool for the job, he loved problem-solving and was endlessly curious about how things worked. Ray will be remembered for living his life defined by kindness and generosity by his family and all who knew him.

His family wish to express gratitude to the East Park Staff of Elmwood Place for the exceptional care they gave Ray.

Funeral arrangements have been entrusted to Westview Funeral Home and Cremation Centre, 709 Wonderland Road North, London.

Cremation has taken place.  The family invites guests for a Celebration of Life on Sunday, October 19, 2025, between 2:00 and 4:00 p.m. at the funeral home.
