The Bakersfield Californian 
Gray, Philip S.     
1960 - 2005 
 
Philip S. Gray 
12/19/1960 - 12/13/2005 

Phil was born in Visalia, CA in 1960 and moved to Bakersfield in 1974. He 
attended West High School, Bakersfield College and Cal Poly, SLO. He had a 
passion for the fire service and a fascination with fire apparatus. He 
achieved his dream of becoming a firefighter, joining the Kern County Fire 
Department in 1988. Rising through the ranks, he eventually achieved the rank 
of Battalion Chief, taking the position of Fire Marshal. During his career he 
had the opportunity to serve as a Fire Department Chaplain, a ministry that 
was dear to his heart. Phil is survived by Robin, his wife of 22 years; Asa, 
his 9-year old son; as well as his parents, Stan and Kathy Gray. Phils passion 
in life was to serve his Lord, Jesus Christ. He was a loyal friend, a faithful 
son, a proud father and the most loving and gentle husband. We will truly miss 
him. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Kern County Fire 
Department Welfare and Benefit Association Phil Gray Fund. A memorial service 
was held Monday, December 19, 2005, at 9:00 a.m., at Laurelglen Bible Church 
with a graveside service immediately following at Hillcrest Memorial Park.
