Martin Alan Raye, 66, of Coralville, passed away last week of natural causes.

Martin was born in Des Moines to Ronald and Clara Raye. He was a 1969 graduate of Valley High School and carried on his education at Iowa State University with a degree in Journalism. He then attended Drake Law School for two years but decided to take a different path. He lived in Iowa City for the last 38 years and had been a software developer at Noel-Levitz.

Martin was a gentle loving person who enjoyed family gatherings in Des Moines. He treasured his time with his Iowa City family of friends and valued his association with his co-workers. He was a prolific reader, a writer in his later years, an avid Iowa State fan and the go-to guy for trivia questions.

He is survived by his sisters, Carol Raye, Diana Hanisch and Linda Harvey (Tom); sister-in-law, Susan Raye; a niece, four nephews and their families. He was preceded in death by his parents and brother, Michael Raye.

A gathering to celebrate Martin’s life will be held Sunday, February 25th from 1-3 pm at the Gay & Ciha Funeral Service in Iowa City. Online condolences may be shared with his family at www.gayandciha.com.
