On behalf of the Ohio Attorneys General Bureau of Criminal Identification & Investigation, our thoughts and prayers are with the immediate family Deputy Sheriff Ray W. McCrary, Jr. and the extended law enforcement family of the Shelby County Sheriff's Office, Tennessee.


End of Watch Saturday, July 25, 2021.


Rest in Peace brother and watch over us. We will protect and serve from here on in your honor.

I fight not for glory or fame, for they are momentary. I fight for those who can't. I fight for Justice. I fight for the oppressed and the down trodden. And if I should lose my life for these just causes, then I have no regrets, For I serve to protect the innocent. It matters not where or when, for evil knows no boundaries. Be it fire, flood, or the threat of tyranny, I will not flee. Justice is my weapon. Faith is my shield. Hope is my armor. Cry not at my passing, for it was my Honor to fight for you. Shed not tears of sorrow, But tears of joy, for now, I stand with God.

By Jon F. Hooper

A police officer should be remembered not by how he died but how he lived! A great man has gone to secure a safe path for the rest of us to follow. Thank you to you, your family and the Shelby County Sheriff's Office. Our country is a little less safe without you. Rest in Peace Brother!

I worked with Deputy McCrary
at Shelby County Sheriff’s Office for about 15+ years in the role of dispatcher. He was always very respectful toward us and was just an all around great human. .He was respected as a partner and friend.
Very sad about his passing.

Rest easy in the arms of our Lord

Almighty God, our heavenly Father, in whose hands are the living and the dead; I give You thanks
