Gregory at an early age had a shoe shine box where he set out to start a business shining shoes. Trying to continue his quest to make money he helped with groceries at the super market, he also continued working at the Hyatt Regency hotel as a custodian later in life.
Some of the fondest memories of Gregory were his ability to ask about the family one by one to get any updates and his visits to Thanksgiving dinners and him saying “What he was thankful for!”
