Personality
Ray is an extremely kind and supportive father. When Julie was temporarily kicked out of her school's music program, he was willing to enroll her in a school as far away as Australia just so she could continue her budding career in music. He is also understanding and very patient with his children but still knows how to lay down the law, although in a way that is not overbearing. He is skeptical of the existence of the supernatural, but is willing to give the idea a chance even if only to humor his son.

Due to his parenting style being more laid-back and trusting of his children, Ray has a tendency to draw the ire of his sister-in-law, Victoria, who believes in a firmer approach to raising children. However, the two get along well and are quite close. He deeply misses his wife, and sometimes talks to her as if she were still alive. Ray always takes his children's opinions into consideration, acknowledging their intelligence and independence. He has mentioned on several occasions that he is thankful to the Phantoms for bringing his daughter “back to life” and that he wishes to meet them, although he understands that the situation is difficult as he believes they live far away. In that respect, he does not question Julie’s words and trusts that she makes good decisions on her own.

Physical appearance
Ray is a slender yet well-toned man of tall stature, with fair skin and clear blue eyes. He has short, straight salt-and-pepper hair styled neatly. He dresses well, usually wearing a t-shirt with jeans, a jacket, boots, and occasionally, a fedora. He has a resonant, gravelly voice.
