Brent Parker Gray, better known as Buddy born January 21, 1981, died on February 10, 2025. Buddy was a strong free-spirited man and will be remembered by many.
He was the proud father of Kabreya Gray, Elijah Gray and Luke Gray, a son to Denise and Daniel Gray, and a brother to Wendy Doty and Daniel Jr (DJ) Gray. He was also known as Uncle Buddy to many family and friends. He will always be remembered as someone who was never afraid to speak their mind. If he had a thought he'd make sure you knew about it. He loved to pass time by listening to Tom McDonald or some classic rock. He fought a long and hard battle with anxiety but still managed to keep his head held high. He was the friendliest and most outgoing man who accepted anyone and everyone with open arms. You would usually see him out with his mom at concerts and other outings as they were the ultimate best friends.
He will be survived by his children, his mother and every one who called him a friend. Forever 831 "Eight letters, three words, one meaning I love you."
