Private services with military honors will be held at Liberty Memorial Gardens.

Elwyn Ray Lego,Sr., 63, of Easley, our beloved Husband, Father, Brother, and Grandfather passed away peacefully on January 15, 2022.

Born in Sturgis, Michigan he was a son of the late William Albert Lego and June Shorey Kilpatrick.

He will be remembered for being a huge cheerleader for his loved ones and those he cared deeply for, as well as his twenty-year service in the U.S. Navy. Ray served his country and he served others, he worked hard to keep both safe and do both proud. He loved watching Detroit everything for professional sports, supporting The University of Michigan’s athletic teams, writing poetry, singing karaoke, playing pool, bragging about his family members, and being a part of his wife’s silly party ideas and celebrations.

Mr. Lego was tenderhearted, thoughtful and witty. He always took more pride in someone else’s accomplishments than he did in his own, he thought outside of the box in making someone smile, and he was quick witted enough to get a laugh at just the right moment. He also loved dogs, and had a soft spot for labs, but any dog would bring a smile to his face.

Surviving is his wife, Beth Hickam Lego of the home; three daughters, Tricia Woodward (Jim) of Greer, Jennifer Owen (Greg) of Easley, and Laura Zartman (Jeremy) of Seatle, WA; a son, Ray Lego, Jr. of Taylors; two sisters, Terry Woods and Kathy Schroeder; 8 grandchildren, Brittany Emerson, Kaitlyn Garrard, Gabriel Aderholdt, Leland Rosenberry, Isabella Landers, Alexa Landers, Trey Lego, and Barron Woodward; also surviving is a great grandson Brody.

In addition to his parents he was preceded in death by a son, Joseph Lego, a sister, Linda Bowersox, and a brother, Roger Lego.
