Sara Grey is a member of the extended "Grey Family" in the Marvel Comics universe.
The character, created by Chris Claremont and John Byrne, first appeared in X-Men #136 (August 1980).
Within the context of the stories, Sara Grey is the elder sister of Jean Grey, wife of Paul Bailey, and mother of Gailyn and Joey Bailey.
Throughout her appearances she was portrayed as a firm believer in the mutant cause. This was became a significant plot point during the "Dark Phoenix Saga" when she reminds Jean of the promise she made when her sister went off to the Xavier Institute, that if Jean would use her powers to help save people, Sara would love her no matter what had happened.
Sara goes missing after Jean's resurrection. While the X-Men believe that one of many mutant-hating groups are responsible, she had been absorbed by the Phalanx into its system. She is eventually found by Banshee, but the rescue comes too late to save her.

Famous quotes containing the word grey:
“... it is probable that in a fit of generosity the men of the United States would have enfranchised its women en masse; and the government now staggering under the ballots of ignorant, irresponsible men, must have gone down under the additional burden of the votes which would have been thrown upon it, by millions of ignorant, irresponsible women.”
—Jane Grey Swisshelm (1815–1884)
