Obituary of Raymond Cook Angell

Raymond Cook Angell of Hilton Head passed away on August 31, 2018 at the age of 83. He was a loving husband, father, pap pap and friend. Ray was born January 1, 1935 in Pittsburgh, PA, along with his twin brother Rob, to parents William Raymond Angell and Dorothy Ida (Jones) Angell. Ray excelled in athletics during his youth.

After earning a degree in Metallurgical Engineering, Ray was employed for his career by Babcock and Wilcox and retired as VP and GM of the Tubular Products Division. Ray and Lois retired to Hilton Head Island where they joined First Presbyterian Church and Ray began volunteering at The Heritage Golf Tournament. Over the course of his 25+ years with The Heritage, Ray advanced from a marshal to General Volunteer Chairman. As Lois’ health declined, Ray’s affection for her was visible in his tender attention to her every need. Ray’s devotion never wavered.
