Raymond Irvin Nagel

Born on May 12, 1947, Ray was the son of the late Frederick R. and Mildred E. (Reynolds) Nagel. He was a graduate of East Liverpool High School. He worked in local potteries, various coal mines, and finally retired from Quaker State Oil Refinery. Ray’s hobbies included: fishing out on the lakes, hunting, piloting single engine airplanes, and traveling to Maine with his beloved wife of 43 years, Shirley Heffner Nagel. Whenever he heard someone call him “Irv”, he knew it was his Aunt Mary. He was also affectionately known as “Raymie”.

Along with his parents and his wife, Shirley, preceding him in death was his sister, Joanne Nagel Vivian.

Left to cherish Ray’s memory are: his sister, Jane Goodman Adams; stepdaughter, Marsha (Gary) Whitla; stepson, Mark Grafton; step-granddaughter, Kristen (John) Clark; step-grandson Gary Michael Whitla; great-grandson, Aiden Clark, and many cousins.
