Larry Eugene Gray, age 71, went to our Lord on February 27,2021 at 2:51 PM.

Larry was a loving husband to Charlene Gray for 50 wonderful years. He was “Pop” to Richard Scott Gray & Sean Ryan Gray. And Larry was the most AMAZING Grandfather “BOP” to his 5 grandsons. Being “BOP” was so very important to him! He didn’t miss many football games, went on many vacations & loved his family. He was so proud of his boys! He was a great cook & a true “foodie”. He had MANY friends. Larry was proud of his service in the US Army & will be laid to rest at The National Cemetery. His brother Mark Gray & two nieces live in North Carolina. 

Larry worked for Sears for 25 years. He could fix ANYTHING! At age 55 Larry & went into Eddy Current Testing with a company in Georgia. He & two partners left that company to start AGR Inspections based here in the metroplex. HE LOVED Eddy Current Testing & all the friends he met over the 20 plus years he was in the business. He was a kind, sweet, gentle soul who loved with his whole heart! He would laugh often with a twinkle in those blue eyes. After 6 years of failing health his wings were ready but our hearts were not… watch over us sweetheart & wait for us at the gate.
