About Us

Gray Family Services is owned and operated by Gary and Judy Gray, and by Kris Gray and Kara Gray Ludlum. Kris and Kara “grew up” – literally – in the funeral business, living in quarters above the funeral home for a time. No one has more knowledge, understanding and experience in serving, whenever and however it is needed, than Kris and Kara.

Our History...

Kris and Kara’s parents, Gary and Judy Gray, purchased the funeral home in their hometown of Grandfield in 1960.  Gray Funeral Home is still part of Gray Family Services.  They came to Lawton in 1982, purchasing Lawton’s original funeral home.  Since that time, the family has modernized Lawton Ritter Gray Funeral Home to reflect a continuing commitment to excellent service, while meticulously preserving its warm and historic original character.  Visitors frequently comment on the unique beauty of the facilities.  In 2001 they expanded their serving capability when they purchased Sunset Memorial Gardens Cemetery and Mausoleums.

Our Vision for the future...

Gray Family Services has a rich tradition of serving the needs of families from all backgrounds.  That will never change.  However, times do change, and with them the needs, desires and wishes of families in many areas of life…including the death of a loved one.  While most families continue to choose tried and proven services, many are seeking a more personalized opportunity to remember a special one, in a special way.  Our vision is to stand ready – and able – to assist you with any memorial, any time, any place.
