Dale Gray

Dale Gray, 84, of Edgewood, Maryland, formerly of Atlantic, died Friday, May 9, 2025, at his home in Edgewood.

Dale Gray, son of Lewis Tennis Gray and Velma Mae (Bishop) Gray, a beloved husband, uncle, and friend, passed away peacefully on May 9th, 2025, surrounded by the love and prayers of his family.

Born on September 25, 1940, Dale lived a life marked by quiet strength, resilience, and devotion to those he loved. A man of deep character and principle, Dale was known for his warm heart, thoughtful wisdom, and the dignity with which he navigated life’s challenges.

Throughout his years, Dale cultivated a legacy rooted in love—supporting family members through life’s many milestones, offering words of encouragement, and always showing up when it mattered most. He had an enduring appreciation for the simple things: a shared meal, a good story, a gentle laugh, and time spent with loved ones.

Though the last chapter of Dale’s life was met with health challenges, his spirit remained strong. Even in moments of confusion or silence, his presence was felt and his life deeply honored by those who stood beside him.

May Dale Gray be remembered for the life he lived, the quiet impact he made, and the deep love he leaves behind.

Dale is survived by his devoted wife, Chong-a Gray, who remained a steadfast advocate and caregiver throughout his journey. He will be profoundly missed by his three sisters, nieces, nephews, extended family, and all who had the privilege of knowing him.

A private ceremony will be held to honor Dale’s life and the family welcomes prayers and warm memories in his name. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to a cause that supports elder dignity or kidney health.
