Obituary for Michael Earl Gray Published in the Orlando Sentinel on Mar. 7, 2008 After an inspiring year and a half spent fighting a disease that claims most within six months, Michael E. Gray, 59 died, Tuesday, March 4, 2008, at home with his loving wife Mary Lynne at his side. He was born May 21, 1948 in Decatur, AL, was a longtime resident of Sanford, and moved to New Smyrna Beach in 1999. Mike received his BS degree from Florida State University in 1971, and after six years as a Naval Aviator, Mike attended and graduated from the Cumberland School of Law at Samford University in Birmingham, AL. He returned to Sanford, FL, where he earned a reputation as an esteemed lawyer from 1980-2008. He was a member of the Florida and Seminole County Bar Associations and numerous other legal organizations. He was recently honored by the legal association Volie A. Williams Inns of Court for promoting ethics and professionalism in his practice. Mike leaves behind his devoted wife of 37 years, Mary Lynne; his daughter, Jessica Gray, Melbourne, FL; his son, Tyler Gray, New York, NY; two grandchildren, Cash Michael and Ida Josephine Gray, New York, NY; brother, William D. Gray, Sorrento, FL; mother, Kathryn Gray Allenbaugh, New Smyrna Beach, FL; and nephews Shaun and Josh Gray. He also leaves behind his partners and staff at Gray and Gorenflo law firm who became part of the family over the years. His courage and strength while fighting brain cancer for the last year and a half were beyond belief, an inspiration to anyone who knew him. He will be deeply missed and often remembered by all whose lives he touched. Mike loved fishing with his wife and children and playing with his grandchildren. He had picked out rods and reels for his grandkids, whom he'd already started teaching to fish. As recent as Christmas, he was well enough to assemble the toys his grandchildren awoke to find under the tree. |
