Ray Park, Loveland Fishing Club past club president and creator of the Loveland Fishing Club Senior Derby, has passed away. Cremation is planned, but no further information was available. He is survived by his wife Sue.
Ray, who served as President in 2011, conceived of the senior derby as a way to create a fishing opportunity for residents of every assisted living center resident in Loveland, a memorable day outdoors for people who may not have had an opportunity to fish for many years. That dream led to one of the club’s most well-recognized contributions to the Loveland community, one that continues each September.. Even as his own health failed, Ray continued to take an active role in the event at Flatiron Reservoir.
