Stephen Mark Gray, 63, of Biloxi, MS, St. Martin community passed away Saturday, March 1, 2025.

Mark was born on April 26, 1961 in Biloxi MS. to Bobby and Linda Gray. Mark was a 1979 graduate of St. Martin High School where he was a faithful band member. He loved his band family and all the great friendships that were made. Many he still kept up with until he passed. He attended Jefferson Davis Jr. College for two years and then transferred to Ole Miss. Later, he and his father Bobby, started their own business. Gray Construction Company. After many successful years of construction work with his dad, he began his Concrete business where he did much of the road and highway Cement Box work on the MS Gulf Coast. Mark attended Center Pointe Church in Ocean Springs, Ms. where he enjoyed worshipping with his family. Mark gave his heart to Christ early on in life and loved sharing his faith with others. Mark worked hard for his family. He loved his children with an everlasting love. If you spent any time with him, you would know about each and every one of them. The day he became a grandfather was one of the highlights of his life. He showed pictures and videos to anyone who would stand still long enough. He loved to host family gatherings where he was the master shrimp and crawfish boiler. He had the biggest heart and willingly helped all who were in need. Mark gave big not only because of his love for people but most importantly for his love of Jesus Christ. He often spoke of one day getting to heaven, bowing before Christ and spending eternity with him and his loved ones.
