William Gray BAINES was the child of Charlie David BAINES and Millie Maria GANEYWilliam Gray BAINES died 7 May 2013 in Greenville, North Carolina, USA.
Born in Rocky Mount, NC, a thriving cotton mill town, tobacco, and agriculture. His parents lived and worked in the Rocky Mount Mill Village. As did many of his father's siblings. He went by the name Gray. As a boy he enjoyed fishing, hunting, and baseball. As a teen he attended high school, rode a grocery delivery bike as a job, and excelled at football and baseball. He graduated and enlisted in the USAF. He retired after 21 years of service where he continued participating in sports, got married, divorced, and married again. He fathered three children and loved his children. He served in the Vietnam War. After retirement as a Master Sergeant in the USAF, he returned to Rocky Mount to finish raising his family. He was a salesman for many years at Edgemont Meat Co. until they closed. He then worked as a garden center manager for Lowe's Home Improvement until he retired. He had the joy of being a grandfather five times. I think that was his biggest joy. He died much too early from lung cancer complications. I knew him as Daddy, others as Gray, and he is missed and loved by many.
