Keturah, My husband Steve and I met you when you were staffing Diane Sawyer´s revisiting of RFK´s visit to E KY from 1968. My husband Steve was invited to be a panelist because of his participation in the Kennedy tour. Sadly, Steve passed away three weeks ago. Please accept my sincerest condolences for your Dad´s passing. He sounds like a remarkable man. With sympathy, Sissy Cawood

Jim and family, we're so very sorry for your loss. We wish we could have met this "builder of people" - something the world needs more of, and that we should all aspire to be. Peace.

I label myself under the headings; Friend, Work, and School. Friend because our relationship came out of our children going to the same school, and school because we were fellow graduates of Western Kentucky University. Work because we both ran companies. Howard was always gracious, always listening to what you had to say and sincere with you in every conversation. With his illness he never complained. A fine human being. He will be missed. May the Lord be with the extended Gray family

So very sorry for your loss of a truly great man Cassandra and family

Howard Gray was a great man and most definitely a great boss. I left the company when my husband and I started a family. Ocassionally we would run into Howard and Cassandra, and he seemed to be very glad to see us and hear about our family. May you rest in peace and may God give Cassandra and family comfort and peace.

My condolences to the Gray Family. I met Howard at The Historic Eureka Inn during The International Storytelling Festival in Jonesborough TN many years ago... I remember the depth of the conversations with him, and other family members... His kind heart, and his having felt blessed in order to bless others, is a legacy through time now... Honoring The Most Holy for the Life & Spirit-Being of Howard Gray...

Howard was a great mentor in both our lives. May your memories bring you comfort.
