Lynne Marie Gray

Lynne Marie Gray, age 79, of Minnetonka MN left this world peacefully on July 22, 2024. She was born on VE Day, May 8, 1945. Lynne was the oldest child of Roger James Gray and Agnes Rose Miller Gray who raised their six children in Robbinsdale, Minnesota. Lynne attended Sacred Heart grade school and St. Michael Catholic High School. She had a long career in sales, most notably with Minnetonka Mills in Hopkins selling fabric and with Coldwell Banker Burnet as a real estate agent and home stager. Lynne was a role model in her service to the community of St. Leonard's Catholic Church. She led the religious ed program and plant sale, directed the nativity play, and sewed banners and vestments. She was an accomplished seamstress, cook, hostess, decorator and lover of beauty, art, fashion, culture and travel.Lynne was passionate about Lake Minnetonka history due to the family's heritage as territorial pioneers of Gray's Bay. With a spirit of inclusion and generosity, Lynne took people under her wing and did many things to make people feel special. Lynne's dry sense of humor and gift of hyperbole were an innate part of who she was, and her many one-liners are woven into the fabric of family lore. Preceded in death by parents and niece Sarah Jane Puanani Gray. Survived by children Andrew Krueger of Jacksonville, Fl (Amanda) and Stephanie Rasley of Edina (Ron); grandchildren Brian Krueger, Mary Helen Krueger, Michael Rasley and Carolyn Travaline; siblings Roger (Buster) Gray (Margaret), Robert Gray (JoAnn), Barbara Ross (Charlie), Mary Monson (Jon), Susie Gray (Jerry); and many nieces and nephews. A funeral Mass, open to all, will be held at 11:00 am on Thursday, August 1st at Incarnation Catholic Church in Minneapolis (3801 Pleasant Ave. S) with visitation 1 hour prior. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that any memorials in Lynne's name be directed to one of the following: N.C. Little Hospice, Edina, or Park Nicollet Foundation, St. Louis Park. Seek out a friend or stranger and show extra care and generosity towards that person in the name of Lynne. www.Washburn-McReavy.com Edina chapel 952-920-3996
