Ray Green, was Chairman and Chief Executive of the Jubilee Market Hall, at Covent Garden, London.
He had made a valiant fight against pancreatic cancer for nearly a year, which he fought so bravely with dignity and courage. From diagnosis he was always cheerful, positive and strong and was determined to fight the disease.
He made the Jubilee Market unique when he devised a scheme whereby all the market traders were invited by him to assist in fund raising for the market, and were then made shareholders in the Company with a lease on their own particular plot in the market for 125 years.
After his fight to save the Covent Garden market when the then GLC had decided to demolish it, he went on to form the Company which he headed until the day he died. Such was his success that Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II came to the market to open it in 1984. Subsequently he was extremely proud to have a coat of arms awarded to the market by the Royal College of Arms.
He was instrumental in helping the Royal Opera House to raise the funds to rebuild it, and became known by many of the various bodies in the Covent Garden area as 'Mr Covent Garden.'. He was a leading Freemason and chaired many of the governing associations in Westminster.
