Donald Joseph Gray was born in Paterson, New Jersey, on July 27th, 1949.
Not long after, Louisville, Kentucky became his childhood home until
1965 when the family moved again, to Garden Grove in Southern
California.

Don graduated from Garden Grove High School in 1967 and briefly attended
Orange Coast College before enlisting and serving in the U.S. Navy from
1967 to 1969. Don worked mainly in the construction industry while
living a short while in Las Vegas and also was a long-time resident of
Lake Havasu City, Arizona. Later he became a Mason and a Shriner and
enjoyed being involved with the Shriner Motorcycle Drill Teams.

Don was preceded in death by parents Roland and Dorothy (Greenlaw) Gray
and older brother James Allin Gray. He is survived by younger sister
Catherine R. Gray of Longmont, Colorado and ex-wife Catherine L. Gray of
Las Vegas, Nevada.

Private Ceremony will be held at Arizona Veterans' Memorial Cemetery at
Camp Navajo followed by Celebration of life.

On this day, we encourage everyone to leave memories and upload photos
to the memorial page at lietz-frazefuneralhome.com Each memory shared
will serve as a comforting reminder of the joy and love Donald brought
into our lives, helping us to keep their spirit alive. Let us remember
Donald not for their departure, but for the life they lived and the love
they shared.

Arrangements were entrusted to Lietz-Fraze Funeral Home
