Karin Bray Obituary

It is with a heavy heart that we have to announce the passing of Karin Bray (3/29/1961 -3/12/2024), long time owner of the General Hair Store. She passed from a short battle with CLL. She was a brave and courageous fighter. She was a lover of butterflies and the color orange. She was a passionate crossword puzzle fan. She is survived by her son Ian Bray, sister Susan Uhl, niece Jerri Uhl, nephew Bryan Uhl, and great-grand nieces and nephews. She was proceeded in death by her father, Wilmer Collins, mother Delilah, brother Wayne and she is now in the loving arms of her sweet husband, David Bray. She will be deeply missed by countless people.

In lieu of flowers an account has been set up at TBK Bank - In Care of Karin Bray - for expenses.

General Hair Store will have an all day open house on her birthday, Friday, March 29th. Come by to get a cupcake and share memories.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

We have known Karin since early 80's. She was a dear person. Of course, we were both clients of General Hair and her Centennial Center neighbor.
We will always value our memories of Karin, and we send our sincere sympathy to her family.

I am so sorry to hear of Karin's passing. I have known her for over 40 years. She was always so welcoming even when I came in with my "difficult hair". I will truly miss her. Love to all her family.
