Vincent Gray was a hardworking man who believed in the value of commitment and showing up for work every day. He started his own company, Irwin Interiors System Inc. in Trafford in 1986, a construction supply company he built from the ground up that specializes in metal and wood stud framing, drywall and acoustical ceilings for commercial businesses.
“He was a very giving guy,” says his son Tim Gray, who continues in his father’s footsteps, running the family business with his brother Matt. “He always wanted to give others a chance. That is what he believed in.”
Vincent and his wife Kathryn raised their two boys in North Huntingdon where the boys attended Norwin High School. Following Vincent’s death, the family dedicated a scholarship in his memory in support of young athletes at Norwin High School whose hard work, determination and day-to-day commitment to academics and sports have proven exceptional.
