Paying tribute to Gillian Gray
Gillian Gray passed away at the end of last year, concluding an extraordinary life and an inspiring husband-and-wife partnership forged over six decades.
Born on June 10, 1939, in Port Elizabeth, Gill’s journey began humbly but grew into a legacy of profound impact. After completing her studies, she moved to Cape Town, where she met Allan Gray, a newly qualified chartered accountant. A friendly bet set their story in motion – Allan was challenged to win Gill over for a date. And, as they say, the rest is history.
