wife, Mary, of 24 years. Lee and Mary had a son, David, in 1972 and Michael in 1974. Throughout the 70s and 80s there was more moving around, which is typical for broadcasters. Lee worked for stations in Arkansas, New York, Texas and Illinois, just to name a few. On December 17, 1995 in Houston, Lee suffered a heart attack and had to have a triple bypass surgery. The years of a radio disc jockey, especially in the 1960s and 70s, did a lot of harm to his heart. After a successful operation and a slow recovery, Lee went back on the air two months later, on February 19, 1996. He was on the air for three more weeks before suffering another heart attack on the way to his doctor's appointment; this time it was fatal. Lee Gray died on March 8, 1996 at the age of 59, one week before his 60th birthday. References External links Lee Gray Official Website. Charity by The Gray Things (1966) 1936 births 1996 deaths
