It is with deep sadness that the family of Douglas Bray announces his passing.
Douglas, age 73, known to friends and family as “Doug”, was born on March 11, 1952, in Denver. He peacefully passed on April 1,2025, at the Collier Hospice Center in Wheat Ridge.
Doug grew up in Denver, where he attended South High School. The majority of his career was working as a CNC Programmer and Operator at CoorsTek in Golden from which he retired.
Doug was predeceased by his parents, Edwin and Beverly Bray, stepbrother Patrick, and sister Donna Edwards (Ernie).
Doug is survived by his beloved wife of 24 years, Wilma. He was a very loving and devoted father to his children, Andrea (Anthony) Amato, and Jason (Amy) Bray, and to his four grandsons, AJ, Luca, Dante Amato, and Lincoln Bray. Doug is survived by his brother Donald Bray, his sister Bonnie Bray, and nieces and nephews.
Doug’s friends and family remember him for his kindness, willingness to help others, love of his family, and most of all his dry sense of humor. He never missed an opportunity to tell a joke and join in the laughter. Doug treasured his tools and a passion for woodworking and going on outings with his shooting buddies who share a passion for vintage WWII guns.
A celebration and remembrance will be held Sunday, July 27, 2025, at Arbor House at Maple Grove Park, 14600 W 32nd, Golden, from 5:00 – 8:00. A tree has been planted in celebration of his life.
