Gary Wayne Gray, 71, of Campbellsville, KY, the son of the late Howard and Mildred (Canada) Gray, was born September 19, 1954 in Campbellsville and departed this life on Sunday, March 29, 2026 at Taylor Regional Hospital. 

He had made a profession of faith in Christ and was a member of Robinson Creek Baptist Church. Mr. Gray worked at Fruit of the Loom for 26 years and retired from Ingersoll Rand after 16 years.

Gary enjoyed most things outdoors, including hunting, fishing and horseshoe pitching. Sunday’s were family day at his house, and his family included everyone. If he wasn’t watching Jeff Gordon win a NASCAR race, he was probably trying to figure out who had the bird in a game of Rook (it was him!). Many a fond memory was made during those days, and those memories will be cherished for life.

Besides his parents, he was preceded in death by three siblings: Leon Gray, Lorena Cochran and Joyce Watkins.
