George Ray Corley, 75, of Ninety Six, husband of Cindy Mitchell Corley, passed away Wednesday July 17, 2024 at his home.

Born on February 21, 1949, in Saluda, SC, Ray dedicated his career to automotive repair, first at Corley's Garage in Ninety Six until 2001 and then moved the business to his home shop. His talent and love for cars made him a respected figure in the industry. His love for cars was evident to all who knew him. His love for cars extended beyond the garage, as he even tried his hand at racing on the dirt track in Newberry. It was there that he achieved his crowning glory by winning the Points Championship in 1985-1986. In addition to his love for cars, Ray enjoyed deer and turkey hunting, finding solace in the great outdoors. In his younger years he attended Salvation Army Church in Greenwood.

He is survived by his wife Cindy; sons, Cody Corley (Lana) and Mitchell Corley (Kearstin); stepson, Steven Isbell; sister, Gwen Timms (James); brothers, Ronnie Corley (June) and Jimmy Corley; and grandchildren, Ryder Corley and Celie Corley and his canine guardian, Oreo.

He was preceded in death by his parents, George Felder and Ozelle Rowe Corley; stepmother, Viola Kazimer Corley; and brother, Phillip Corley.
