October 29, 1972 – January 25, 2022

Herbert G. “Gray” Hicks, 49, of Midlothian, VA passed away on Tuesday, January 25, 2022.

He attended Hermitage High School, where he was a dedicated member of the marching band, and graduated in 1991. Right after, he pursued a career in the Automotive Industry, working his way up from sweeping floors to being a very knowledgeable automotive painter. He married his wife, Julia (Borzek) Hicks in December of 1996 and they share 3 children together. Although they divorced in 2016, they remained friends over the last few years. Gray was a motorcycle enthusiast and a McFarlane action figure collector. He was someone who loved both listening to and playing music, and drawing; two talents he passed down to his children. Gray will be remembered as a loving father, brother, uncle, and friend, with a big heart and willing to help out anyone in need. He will be dearly missed by all who knew him.

Gray is survived by his 3 children, Jarrett, Trinity, and Briana; sisters, Jessica (Jay), Raven (Stanley), Sue and Sandra (Keith); brother, Alex; dog, Bailey; other family members including nieces, nephews, and cousins; as well as many close friends.
