Obituary of LaRay Tidmore

LaRay Lee Tidmore was born on December 17, 1967 in Idabel, the son of Jimmy Lee Tidmore and Carol White. LaRay grew up in the Forest Grove Community where he attended Elementary school. He had many ups and downs in life but had completely turned his life around. He learned a trade in welding and worked in construction. He was living and working in Hereford, Texas at the time of his death. He was a very big hearted person who tried to help many of his friends and family. He never met a stranger and was a very hard worker. He truly loved hunting and fishing and spending time with his family and friends. Not a day went by that he would not call and talk to his mother. He would always tell her that he loved her and to take care of herself. He worked as a truck driver in his twenties and during that time he fathered two children and just lately married a very wonderful lady. On Thursday morning, February 22, 2007, an angel came down from heaven to take him to his eternal resting place. Preceding him in death were his brother, Jimmy Dwain Tidmore in 1994, nephew, Coty Dwain Tidmore in 2005, and grandparents, A. S. Tidmore in 1994 and Juanita Tidmore in 1996, and Mary Nell Jamison in 2005.
