Gregg was born on Oct. 15, 1967, in Buchanan.

In school, Gregg was a great athlete and loved sports. He worked the majority of his life in construction and most recently for Thor Motor Coach, which he enjoyed. Gregg was a Notre Dame fan and a die-hard Steelers fan.

Over the years he played on several pool leagues and men’s slow pitch softball, enjoyed throwing darts and drinking his Budweiser and Apple Pie. Gregg had a wide sense of humor and could get anybody to smile with his witty remarks. He had a heart of gold and was an incredibly selfless man, constantly putting others needs before his own. Most of all, Gregg cherished time spent with his family and grandkids, making sure they were always taken care of.
