We never thought or imagined this day would come.. The day we lost the strongest, wisest, and kindest man we've ever  known. Our father Terry Bray, Passed away peacefully at home, at the age of 70 on January 23, 2025.

Our mother and father were married 50 years. Our dad always told us that, while they never had a wedding they had a lot of honeymoons. We've always felt very privileged to say that our parents were still married. While they had their fair share of struggles, their love story was always the epitome of love in our eyes. Love is not only a feeling you have, it's a choice you make to keep trying. For better or worse, till death do you part. They did that.

Our father was a good man with a kind soul, and a heart of gold. He loved all things living, loved his family, and loved living a simple life. He worked hard, provided a good life for us, and never asked for anything in return. He love doing yard work, and nurturing the plants and flowers he had sowed, both inside and outside.

He had a stellar sense of humor and he was the life of the party. He had the gift of gab and loved to talk to everyone. He loved music, photography, and he loved to read and watch true crime stories on TV.

He loved animals of all kinds, shapes and sizes. He fed 8 to 10 stray cats in the back yard, plus some possums and raccoon every day for several years.

He would spend hours on the back porch watching the wildlife.

He was an avid recycler and made sure we knew it was for future generations.

He taught us all the wisdom and values that we have and for that we are forever grateful.You did a good job dad, you had a beautiful wife,Raised a beautiful family, 2 daughters and 3 grandsons. Thank you for everything! You were the best dad in the whole wide world.
