Raymond Ronald Auger, a forever resident of Vero Beach, died Monday, March 30, 2020 at the Treasure Coast Hospice. Ray was born in Charleston, South Carolina, December 13,1968, to Roger & Barbara Auger. Ray was known as an extremely talented golfer, good friend to many, and like his dad, a loyal Miami Dolphin fan. A graduate from John Carrol High he also attended Indian River Community College. Ray along with older brother, Richie, was employed at Vero Beach Country Club & Bobby’s on Vero’s Beach. For the past several years, Ray was the well-loved Bar Manager at Vero Beach Yacht Club.

“Your Life was a blessing
Your memory a treasure…
You are loved beyond words
And missed beyond measure”

Ray I didn’t know you. However, I feel I knew you threw your wife. I grew up with her. And just seeing all the beautiful posts and the pictures. I know you made my childhood friend so Very happy and content. You completed her. I have laughed, smiled, liked, and sobbed. Seeing what you and Colleen had gave hope to many who wished they had even a glimpse of what you two shared. May you RIP. I am writing this as if you are seeing this. ..lol maybe in my bizarre mind I believe you are.
