We're so grateful for Mrs. Ray's lifelong leadership. Her legacy inspires us to help our communities and give back to others.

It is with deep sadness we share the passing of Billie Lee Ray, a dear friend, benefactor, alumni of Drake University, and former First Lady of Iowa. Together, Mrs. Ray, along with her late husband, former Governor Robert D. Ray, were champions of many causes—from children and education, to community development. Their legacy of leadership will live on through the efforts of the @TheRayCenter at Drake University, as we continue to fulfill our mission to improve civility through character development and ethical leadership. We extend our deepest condolences to the Ray family and the many others whose lives were positively impacted by Billie Lee Ray.
