William “Jeff” Gray

What a guy!
He had an amazing sense of humor. A great conversationalist. He owned and actually wore a kilt. He made friend s everywhere he went.
In this photo he resembles his mother’s brother, Mick.
He called me when in the hospital
This year and we had quite a conversation. I’ve been trying to reach him.

All conversations with him were “quite a conversation”.
Never knew it would be the last conversation with him. He will be missed.

I could write a book of my memories of Jeff. I came home from work today searching for his number. I really needed to talk to Jeff. As my dead phone was charging, I found this obit on the computer. Saddened to learn of his passing. In my life there was no truer friend. Maranatha , Come Lord quickly.

Jeff lived in such a way that so he would be ready to die at any point with little to no regrets. He decided what he wanted to do early in life and he did it with all tenacity. He never got distracted from his mission and there are hundreds of people who have been enriched by his tenacious love. One of the other posts mentioned that Jeff valued people more than things. Nothing more true could be said about Jeff. He resembled the energizer bunny, going around the community or the entire...

We met Jeff early in our marriage..and spent many hours discussing every topic that surfaced that made you think, laugh, or just ponder. Jeff visited us at random times but his visits just reminded us the things of this world are not as important as we think...but people are,,and made realize this truth every time he made his off the wall visits. We will miss you my friend, brother, and fellow pilgrim.

Jeff was a great friend to me. He was one of the very first Christian friends that I met just after my conversion in 1978. Jeff was very kind hearted to all. He had a GREAT sense of humor that was right up my alley...very dry and very corny. He had me laughing a lot and that is a gift to the world when you are around a man like Jeff.
