I met Ray in Cardiff RFC and introduced myself to him. He made me feel that it was a pleasure for him to meet me. He was a good man and a great Welshman.
A wonderful man. Respectful, Passionate and extremely funny. I was very lucky to be interviewed by him and he was so good to be in his company. R.I.p. Grav. ❤️
True welsh man and scarlet one of greatest welsh players of all time lovely lad ray and got heart of gold only one ray gravel thoughts with u and your family❤
Every person shall, have 15 minutes of Fame! Mine was when i was learning Welsh, i met This Great Man i stood in Awe! Then i plucked up the courage, and actually Spoke in Welsh. Ray spent 20 minutes speaking in ' Cymraeg i fi ' I shall Never forget My 20 minutes of Fame. " Diolch yn fawr iawn i chi Ray Bach. Oddi wyrth Colyn.
I would say to his children "your father was in so many ways; a great man". And although he has passed on ;he still lives in the memories and the hearts of his fellow countrymen (and women) And along with the names of other great Welshmen the mountain streams will babble and the deep moving rock of the mountains will groan forever' as welsh as cawl; the name of Ray Gravell Sadly missed; not forgotten

A top man !! Although I was born just the other side of the border in England, my family were from LLanelli, so that it where my heart is.

Lovely fella, diolch for the memories grav
To answer some of the questions:
Voice at 4min is Ray's great friend Huw Llewelyn Davies
The music is 'An Ending' by Brian Eno
He was my grandad cousin But unfortunately I never met him
It is Huw Llywelyn Davies speaking from 4.01.
Does anyone know what the music is that's playing in the background of the clip?
@NurseGladys74 It's Brian Eno's "An Ending (Ascent)" from "Apollo: Atmospheres & Soundtracks."
Does anyone have any idea who's speaking from 4:01, please?

Huw Llewelyn Davies?
Who shared Welsh language rugby commentary with Ray Gravell for many years. They were always a joy to listen to. Both sadly gone now.
