Brian John Gray, age 47, of Hayes, passed away on July 1, 2025. Brian was born on July 28, 1977 in Alaska to Marsha Lee Reilly Gray and John Edward Gray. He was a beloved son, brother, uncle, nephew, and cousin; he will be sorely missed. A freethinker, he was a friend to the downtrodden and disenfranchised, and a Grateful Dead fan until the very end. Sadly, the world never lived up to his expectations. He was loved and will be missed by more than he will ever know.

Services are private and under the direction of Hogg Funeral Home & Crematory.
