Robert Keck Grayson

Army

Robert “Bob” Grayson, born in Morgantown, WV passed away quietly on March 4, 2021 at the age of 91.

Bob served his country faithfully for 24 years from 1948-1971 in Germany, Okinawa, Finland, Greece, Ecuador, and Vietnam and was awarded the Legion of Merit.

He enjoyed fishing and was an avid sports enthusiast, excelling at baseball, volleyball, and golf.

After retiring from the military as a Chief Warrant Officer 4, he spent another 20 years working as a computer programmer for the City of Fairfax in Virginia before retiring a second time to Cumming, GA to be close to his family.

He is survived by his wife and life-long friend, Jane M. Grayson, age 92, to whom he was married for 68 years. He is also survived by his son Larry Grayson, daughter-in-law Joyce Grayson, and grandson (and best buddy) Paul Grayson, all residents of Cumming, GA. Bob is remembered by all as a generous and compassionate man and a great neighbor, always willing to help a stranger in need.

When you walked into his house you were always greeted with a smile and a hearty welcome and as you left Bob would always call out, “Drive safe, and don’t be in a hurry!”

He will be sorely missed by all who knew him.
