James W. Gray, of Lincoln, formerly Norfolk, passed away peacefully on September 30, 2011 at the Masonic Home in Plattsmouth.
Jim was born in Dorchester on October, 25 1911 and resided much of his adult life in Norfolk. Upon retiring in 1973, he returned to Lincoln and resided there until entering the Masonic Home in July, 2004.
Throughout his life, Jim was involved in numerous civic and church actives. He was also a member of the Masonic Order for his entire adult life (having joined in 1932) and was dedicated to that organization and its good works. In July of this year, The Grand Master of Nebraska presented the Gold Jordan Medal to Jim, recognizing and honoring him as the "Nebraska Mason who is the member of the fraternity longer than any other Nebraska Mason living in the state." Jim has left this world grateful to his blessed Savior for watching over him while he was in this world.
He is survived by one son, Thomas M. Gray and his daughter-in-law, Pamela A. Taylor of Swanton, Md.
