Raymond Maxwell O’Neal, 52, went to be with our Lord and Savior on Dec. 28, 2014.
He was born on Aug. 31, 1962, in San Angelo, Texas.
He was a resident of Okaloosa County for 46 years and was a Plumber by trade for 25+ years. Ray was a loving husband, father, brother and friend. He is already missed by all who knew and loved him.
Raymond was preceded in death by his father, Clifton O’Neal, Jr.; and mother, Joyce Elaine O’Neal. Raymond is survived by his loving wife of 22 years, Sara Ann O’Neal; daughter, Jackie O’Neal; son, Raymond “R.J.” Walter O’Neal; sister, Cathy O’Neal; brothers, Michael and Patrick O’Neal; nephew, Christopher; and nieces, Kristen and Kasey O’Neal.
Ray had a passion for laughter, life and most of all his wife and children. We cannot leave out his passion for sports, especially football, Go Noles-Go Dolphins. A Visitation will be held at Emerald Coast Funeral Home 113 Racetrack Rd NE, Fort Walton Beach, FL, on Monday, Jan. 5, 2015, from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. with a Service in Celebration of his life at 12 p.m. A burial will take place in Wright Cemetery in Fort Walton Beach after the Service.
We wish to extend a special thanks to Dr. Ettinger for always being here for our family. Expressions of love and sympathy may be viewed online at www.emeraldcoastfuneralhome.com.
