Hands of a well-lived life, proofing another godly inspired poem.
Rebecca Gordon Gray was born in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky to Ben and Susie Johnson. She was the youngest of twelve children. She married John Paul Gray, I, and had one son John Paul Gray, II. She lived her entire life in Lawrenceburg and loved every minute of it. Her husband passed in 1981 and she never remarried.
Rebecca was asked by many to write poetry for their events, and she did so willingly and happily. She was loved by her friends, family, and community. A real "cutup." She loved to joke and laugh about the simple things. Writing poetry made her life adventurous. She passed in September 2016.
After seeing all the poems, she had written, I felt her life should be remembered and lived on in a book for all to enjoy. One of her poems was printed in the National Library of Poetry and was awarded the "Editor's Choice Award."
