TRIBUTES HAVE BEEN PAID following the passing of Ray Brady, founder of RMB Engineering.
A GKN time served apprentice in Mechanical Engineering, Ray's career path included engineering roles at Cadbury and Butlers (a Lucas subsidiary) before setting up his own business, RMB Engineering, in 1981.
During his time as Managing Director of RMB, Ray built the company into one of the UK's leading industrial gearbox supply and repair organisations, with his success culminating in the integration of RMB into the maintenance services group Deritend Industries.
Commenting on his father's passing, Mark Brady, Managing Director of Hayley 247, said: "Many messages we have received describe my father as a legend, a pioneer within his field in which he achieved great things. But, he always remained humble, and he was proud of being a devoted husband, Dad and Grandad and a man who would have the back of anybody in his team."
