Carl Gray

Carl Gray, 66 years old, passed away peacefully in his home surrounded by family on Thursday, April 22. Carl was a member of the United States Air Force and was a proud veteran. While in the Air Force he had the responsibility of an airplane mechanic and in his spare time he was a DJ, playing for NCO clubs. Semi-trucks were his passion and he drove a truck from 1989 – 2017. He thoroughly enjoyed his time working for Delivery Express and was extremely loyal to his company. He earned “Driver of the Year” award multiple times along with safe driving awards. Carl enjoyed taking his daughter on trips with him in his semi, and even picked up his son in his semi when he was discharged from the Army. Carl loved going to the truck shows and the kids would be right by his side taking it all in. His love of trucks fostered his love for travel and about the only place Carl hadn’t seen was Niagra Falls. When he was home, Carl loved spending time with his grandkids and was big on family. He like to fish, collect model cars, enjoyed his guns and playing darts. Carl was a huge fan of music and had a collection of vinyl records.

Carl will be greatly missed by his children Crystal Gray of St. Petersburg, FL, Candace Gray (Casey Morris) of Yorkville, and David Gray of Moore’s Hill; Candace & David’s mom, Jan (Skip) Stutz, his grandchildren Jacob Gray, Bryson Gray, Amelia Gray, Robert Gray, Brantley Kernan; his siblings Catherine Harvey and Dorothy Jean Lester.
