Obituary

Bill Gray (Army/USAF, MSgt Retired), joined our Lord and is breathing freely on Thursday, May 30th, 2013 after suffering with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis. Bill proudly served this country in the Army in the Korean War where he received the Bronze Star and the Combat Infantryman Badge (CIB), and later transferred to the Air Force from which he retired. He served as a B52 Fuel Systems Specialist along with other duties. "He took his smile and cute giggle with him, but hey, we have pics and videos!" Bill was hatched in Chattanooga, TN. His mother, Nellie and father Jimmy Gray precede him in death. Still hanging around are Marge, his devoted, playful and loving wife of 32 years; his Boston buddies Willie and Brownie; his daughter Pam James and her husband Edmund of Memphis; two sons, Tim and Billy Gray both of Nashville; six grandchildren, 12 great grandchildren, several nieces and nephews, and a bunch of good bowling buddies. The greatest news is that Bill met our Lord Jesus a couple of weeks before ending his worldly journey! To get to hear Bill pray and praise God is a blessing and testimony for many.
