Richard Herbert Gray

West Point, 1955

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Chuck Roades on January 10, 2002:

Dick Gray and I first met at Stewart Field in late 1950 at the Military Prep School, and right then began a friendship that did nothing but flourish across the years. To make it even more significant, we were both in the same Company, I-2, and so I had the pleasure of Dick's humor, warmth and tremendous quiet humor across the many years. We were never roommates, but that made the times we shared, the trips and leaves more significant because we were always finding new things about each other in much more agreeable conditions. Dick went Army, I Air Force at graduation but we still maintained a healthy correspondence across the years. When Dick passed away I truly felt deprived. A superb human being had left us. Sleep well, old friend; Be Thou at Peace.
