Patrick Gray Obituary

It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Patrick Michael Gray, born October 4, 1980. He died at home in Park Ridge on February 25, 2022.

He is survived by his mother Diane, sister Bridget, and brother Devin (Amy) Gray. He is preceded in death by his father, Brian Gray who passed away March 24, 2011.

Patrick was loved and cherished by many including his two god-daughters, several aunts, uncles, cousins, friends and colleagues.

While attending Prospect High School, Patrick was an accomplished debater and Junior Statesman. Patrick was an actual rock star, as he sang with a voice which graced many stages throughout Chicagoland and beyond. Over the last 15 years, he became a legendary titan of software sales who trained and mentored hundreds of salespeople throughout his career and always closed the deal.

You've been on my mind lately. I tried to reach out a few times since we had last spoke over the holidays. I had no idea you had passed. I'm so sorry you're gone. You were my passed employee, a friend and an incredible person. Say hi to Huppert. I will miss you.

Patrick lived across the driveway for less than a year, but I will miss him. He was a good neighbor. I hope he is reunited with Ellie.

You were one of a kind, Patrick. Gone way too soon. You touched a multitude of lives (many of us Titans) and we will never forget you. We never did get to that karaoke night we kept trying to plan, but I´m going to dedicate the next one to you. Rest In Peace, friend.
