I watch an episode every night. It touched me deeply. I recently saw the new version of the movie FAME. Rest in peace and Dance with the Angels for you are free to do so. TCM2 aired Fame (the movie) this evening in England and I went on-line to see what happened to Gene, only to discover he died in 2003!!! But let me say that not only was I fascinated by his good looks and talent but I admired his free spirit as a person. I remember seeing Gene in the movie fame and the television series. R.I.P XOX. When i was a little girl fame was one of my favorite shows. The whole cast of Fame was actually very gracious during my visits, often stopping tapings when I wanted to speak to them. OOH MY GOOODNESS……………. Gene I wish you could have stayed with us a little longer and although your gone, your presence still lingers on!! I think it’s tragic that someone who struggled to get his life together while battling substance addictions just couldn’t win. Amazed I hadn’t heard before, but what a shocking waste of a talent. She looked like a little girl at Christmas. Fondest thoughts always Everyone in that cast I loved. however, we all must remember we must take this walk whenever GOD says……… acceptance is the key, then, get yourself ready.. i miss my mother, Mrs. Mozell Della Loeb Mccloney who has been gone for 30 years now… What a beautiful, soul… I LOVE YOU MOM!!!!!!!! Ta-ta for now and Abundant Blessings to you… and if anyone thought this was inappropriate, know that the invitation is given at funerals too! While watching the the movie fame I was remembering how I could never take my eyes off Leroy’s dancing. Sorry I saw this site so late, it was sad to see him go but his memory will forever live on in our hearts. tweets: { I LOVED HIS CHARACTER IN FAME! While on my vacation there, we met on a couple of occasions for drinks and just to hang out and check out the London nitelife. Just watching the film Fame and decided to google Gene Anthony Ray to see where he was now. Non sembravi nemmeno umano, con quell’agilit. From Mark in England!!!! I had just purchased the whole of series 1 on DVD and have just watched the episode ‘Tomorrows Farewell’. i grew up watching fame and he was the reason i looked at the show. he was able to take my imagination and leap away with it for an hour a week. AND GAVE US ENCOURAGEMENT TO LEAD US IN THE RIGHT I too, am becoming recently reacquainted with the Fame troupe through its re-airing. Fame was one of my favorite shows. My heart aches. wow.. I can give you all the details, I’m sure he would be happy to have you pay respects. When I watch Fame (my favorite tv show since i was a lil girl!! I especially enjoyed watching the different characters. They are apart of history and information should be made available. I am totally disbelief of the untimely death of Gene Anthony Ray. But the Fame thing always got him a couch to sleep on. I thought that he was a bonafide talent who had soooooo much potential. Love Most liked, -1) ? earth. It saddens me to know how the entertainment industry trivialized his passing by the lack of media coverage. Rest in peace Gene you accomplish so much through your dance. It was sad. Gene Anthony was so phenomenal. I remember watching the film “Fame” and then I became hooked on the TV show. i watched fame when it first aired i liked it cause it had music in it. A band memeber told me a few years ago that they had seen Gene Anthony Ray on tv and that he looked pretty bad. Mr. Ray was a wonderful dancer and actor. He was truly a nice guy, I remembered to him what a big star he was for me and that his character “Leroy Johnson” was known all over the world and that I found so incredible and amazing talking to him in so friendly way, a man that was a real mith and that he had worked with people like Janet and Michael Jackson. Cucca The opulence brought to the set by Gena A. is inescapable. I had just learned of his death from watching the NAACP Image Awards… The Fame Show was the only show in the world that allowed me to dream big. That was in the early 80ies in Germany. Jesus, you are Lord and you, God are still on the throne. DJ CRUZ FROM BALTIMORE……………, FAME! His chiselled looks and athletic physique combined with his formidable dancing talents made him a heartthrob among the programme's largely teen audience. REST IN PEACE GENE ANTHONY RAY!!!!!!!!!!!! Gene was a friend of my mothers. Watching shows and movies like that shows people around the globe, that things happen in life, which we would prefer them not to, but it is down to the individual how they cope with and deal with situations. Marlene REAST IN PEACE AALIYAH DANA HAUGHTON. He almost had ME at the School for Performing Arts. The cast also conveyed the feeling that they were above being ordinary human beings, but destined to some fanatical euphoric place that only few could achieve; seemingly by backbiting, backstabing, being obnoxious, arrogant and defeatist. Shining stars never fades! RIP. they also said he was hiv positive and that aids might have been a factor of his passing. To my hero, you will always be remembered forever in my heart. Faith without works will always be dead. I no longer live in NY but I remember back in the mid to late 80’s passing him as I walked in the Murray Hill section of Manhattan. Fame was the show to watch in the 80’s! He and his friend Regina joined us for a Thanksgiving Day Parade showroom party we hosted and later for dinner at my Scarsdale home. While returning from surfing Honolua Bay with my two brothers, we spotted Gene walking with a girl who’s name escapes me now. I’ve wondered earlier this week why such a gifted man hadn’t rose to a much greater level of stardom. xxoo DAVE, I just got finished watching fame. Gene, you were an inspiration to millions and you will continue to be for many years to come. A true Lord of the dance and acting for his oh so brief time. You will always live–dancing in so many, many hearts. I was shacked. I renounce the works of satan and acknowledge that I’m a sinner and ask your forgiveness and thank you for it. Mr Ray…. Tarayc7, Just learned the sad news. Will be coming a long way from Tennessee. I felt like my heart dropped when I read he had died in 2003. This world will Even after his death he is still gaining fans and has defintely gained one in me. lies. He was a beloved character on Fame & he was SOOOO talented. Are we who we want or meant to be? Wow! I WAS SO SADDENED TO HEAR THAT GENE ANTHONY HAS LEFT US BUT JUST KNOW THAT YOU MADE A TREMEDOUS IMPACT ON Y LIFE. I can’t get out of my mind the performance he gave in the movie “Fame”, nor will I ever forget his performance in the “Fame” TV show, “Desdemona”! But there was a dark side to his genius and I can’t help wondering if he would still be with us today if he had better tamed his demons. real-world solutions, and more. One of things that drew me to the show was Gene Anthony Ray’s character of Leroy. Earlier I had seen a video of Aaliyah and I was trying to think to myself what does her death mean to me and what is the message everyone should learn from her death and many like her. I was surprised that he died… I enjoyed his role in the TV series and it’s unfortunate that his life was stolen by wrong choices. I grew up in the 80’s watching this show. I remember you. He is forever in my heart! I’m approaching 49 and it ain’t over… Be encouraged. Gene Anthony Ray was a wonderful dancer and he made all of us feel proud.
