Gray Walker was a loving wife and caring mother, grandmother and sister who loved her family dearly. She was a woman of uncommon character, beauty and grace, an instrument of God's love on this earth. She was a friend to all, a strong yet gentle and loving presence to all who were blessed to know her. Being a great cook and wonderful homemaker, Gray filled her home with love and welcomed all who entered. She enjoyed cooking for her family and always had enough to feed an army. Her grandchildren affectionately called her "Biscuit Grandma" as they cherish the memories of making biscuits with her. Gray will surely be missed but precious memories will forever remain in the hearts of those who knew and loved her.
In lieu of flowers the family request that memorial gifts be given to Potts Memorial Presbyterian Church, c/o Wanda Marks, 2453 Crooked Run Rd, Willard, NC 28478.
