Gail LaRee Gray, of Frisco, Texas, passed away on July 19, 2013 at the age of 68. She was born June 12, 1945 in Antlers, OK. She was the oldest girl of five children to Loyd and Marie Nabors, and spent most of her school days in Durant, Oklahoma. Gail met and married David Gray in her teens and they moved together to Dallas, Texas. There she began a lifetime of caring for her three precious children, and later seven grandchildren. Just this past December 22, 2012, David and Gail celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary with family and numerous well-loved friends. Over the years she was a member of Christ United Methodist Church in Plano, and Women’s Division of the Plano Chamber of Commerce. Gail loved being a receptionist and worked at Crest Cadillac, Larry Lange Jaguar and most recently Ebby Halliday in Plano. In 2010 Gail was diagnosed with the rare neurological disease PSP (Progressive Supranuclear Palsy). She battled this disease with amazing courage, and her family will tell you they never heard a complaint during her fight. Gail will be remembered as a loving and faithful spouse, caring and giving mother, and fun and adventurous "Nonnie". Her style, class and beauty shone from the inside out. She will be missed dearly by all who knew and loved her.
She is survived by her husband, David Gray of Frisco; children, Davette House and husband Stewart of Plano, Texas, DeAnna Beck and husband Chris of Frisco, Lance Gray and wife Pam of Frisco; granddaughters, Haley House, Sierra Gray and Carson Beck; grandsons, Trevor House, Taylor House, Parker Beck and Dalton Beck; sister, Debby Nabors of Durant, Oklahoma; brothers, Larry Nabors and wife Mary Kay of Durant, Oklahoma, Ricky Nabors and wife Monica of Dallas, Texas.
