Kenneth Lee “Kenny” Gray Jr., 38, passed away peacefully on June 9, 2026, surrounded by those who loved him.

Kenny was born on June 17, 1987, in WoodriverIllinois, and grew up in the Alton area. The role he cherished most in life was being a father. His daughters were the center of his world, and he loved spending time with them, making memories, and watching them grow.

Kenny’s greatest joy in life was being a father. He is survived by his wife, Caysea Gray; his daughters, Karmin Love, Hannah Gray, and Lidia Gray; his mother, Verna Gray (Findley); and many extended family members and friends who will miss him dearly.

He was preceded in death by his father, Kenneth Lee Gray Sr., and his sister, Kory Gray.

Kenny’s memory will live on through his daughters and through the many lives he touched throughout his 38 years.
