As you remark, ever missed, yes,
and he always will be.
Hey Ray, I’ll be with you soon, reserve
Me a pitch.

Never a truer expression than "Forever missed". Can't believe it's been 12 years since he left us. How many C.E.Os know every shareholder by name. ? He did. Always had time to listen to everyone. If he could help, he most certainly did. Never turned anyone away. The best friend anyone could have.

Can't believe it's 11 years since we lost one of the greatest men ever. He did something no one had ever done before. He managed to originate a centre, in the heart of London, where over a hundred individuals were able to build up their own businesses. He knew everyone of them by name, and never refused to give every assistance when asked. He epitomesed the word "Irreplaceable".

Thanks for the fun times.

Hard to believe that it's been 10 years since Ray passed. Every visit to Covent Garden is a reminder of his legacy & of the great friendship he showed to me & to so many others.
RIP Brother

So many of our thoughts are with you, dear Ray. You were a giant among men. We will never see the like of you again. You gave so many of us our lives and our living. God bless you.

I can't believe it's 8 years since we lost our wonderful friend.  God threw away the mould when he made Ray. No one can ever fill his shoes. He never said "No" to all those people who asked him for help. Please God, let him know in heaven that there are those who miss him still.

Sending all my love to heaven on your 80th Birthday. Not a day goes by that I don’t think about you and wish that you were still here. So much has changed. I wonder what you would make of it all? I love you so very much and miss you with all my heart. Mandy x

I'm sure he looks down
On us and, smiles, no doubt he also throws
his hands in the air wondering.
Sleep well old friend. I still miss you .

I boast of being a person who doesn't cry, but today, 5 years after the loss of such a wonderful person as Ray, I did shed a few tears. God threw away the mould when He made Ray. There never was, never could be another like him. He was a big hearted friend to all. We miss you Ray.

Hard to believe it's almost been 5 years; his memory is still so clear.
Lunch the other day in Joy King Lau brought back memories of your oh so specific Chinese favourites.

At the time of his passing, I said that no one could ever fill his shoes. How right I have proved to be. Ray was a "one-off", and without him Jubilee is now only a shadow of the vibrant flourishing place he made for all the traders. Shareholders and casuals alike. God Bless you Ray. You never said "No" to anyone who asked for help if there was a possibility of you giving a helping hand. There are dozens of us who must now say, "Without Ray Green, my life would never have been the happy success it has been"

I am a kiwi who lived in London for many years. Whilst there I was Keith Hudson's secretary at Hudson Freeman Berg. They were the solicitors who created the 125 year leases for Jubilee Market. I saw a lot of Ray during the early years of the Market and was even there the day the Queen came to cut the ribbon! Ray was such a lovely man - very dapper, and a true English gentleman, and I am so sorry to hear of his passing.

After working at Jubliee for a number of years, we retired in 1991.Even now, after all these years.we still have many happy memories of our time spent there. Needless to say, many of them were of Ray, who was a thoroughly kind and decent man.

I knew Ray for over 30 years. He was a giant of a man, not physically, but spiritually. He had a most wonderful, kind and generous nature. He never turned away anyone he could help, and gave his life for the market he loved so much. He was so proud that through his efforts he had ensured the livelihood of over 100 market traders. I cry when I think we will never see him again.

To those of us who knew, worked and laughted with Ray, for so many years, in our hearts he really is still with us, a memorial dinner some weeks ago, celebrating 75 years of a fellowship that many of us belong to, we remembered him, and held a short silence, afterwards, we whilst we dinned, so many stories were told of him, most of them very funny. Sleep peacefully old friend. I miss you.

On 15th April 2013 my dad would have been 75 years old. I think about you every single day and miss you terribly. I hope they have good birthday celebrations up there - you know how you loved to party... especially post event with the Hoover! Happy Birthday to you Dad.  Hope all is well in heaven. Love you always and forever. Mandy x

Ray was a loved, kind family man so endearing any time of day. He brightened both my day and working life at Jubilee. His invaluable respect, timings, wonderful communications for all fellow traders and customers. He helped all I recall,and paid incredible attention to making home from home at work,being the fuse of energy and excellence,will be missed always and on his day of remembrance.

It was my privilege and honour to have beeen able to call this lovely man my friend, and to be considered one of his.
 I knew him for just over 25 years, and in that time he was instrumental in assisting me to join various important associations and events, he became part of my family

I was in Covent Garden yesterday and I swear the spirit of Ray was still  present in every nook and cranny of the market. He was so instrumental in its success. Happy birthday Ray you will never be forgotten

Nothing stopping them for buying up the Jubilee Market now...Green was the sole force being trader protectionism. 

I was pleased to know him years back and when beginning my walks celebrating London`s vanishing markets.

Ray was the kindest, most generous man, a privilege to know him and work with him. The world is sadder place without him, he leaves many legacies behind, but we all still had so much to learn from him. Certainly a life worth living.

I had never met Ray - but Covent Garden is an amazing tribute to his memory - by working relentlessly to save this historical market he has achieved a place in Covent Garden for ever.

I first met Ray in 1984 as a young salesman working for the camden new journal.I spoke with him regularly and to the end he remained a charming, friendly and always positive influence.
He will be really missed. God Bless you Ray.

over the 34 years,since the original inception of street market activities at the Jubilee,Ray always proved a good friend and honest broker, a human dynamo, yet caring and considerate to all. He earned and gave respect and I consider it an honour to have known him.
His passing leaves a void in the hearts of all those that he touched.
May his dear soul rest in peace.

I knew Ray for a very short time, working on the Jubilee Market website. But in that time, I saw what a character he was, what drive he had and how much he was respected. Sadly missed.
