Gregory was a retired District Sales Manager for Wyffels Hybrids. He was a graduate of South Newton High School, Class of 1989. He then attended Vincennes University, graduating with an associate degree in science and finished his schooling with his bachelor's degree from Western Kentucky University, Class of 1995. He was one of the founding members of the Farmhouse Fraternity at Western Kentucky University. He was a Kentucky Colonel and a 3rd degree Mason. He loved being outdoors, enjoying his farm, dogs, and animals. His knowledge of corn went far beyond what a typical person would know and he was an avid fisherman, specifically on Lake Erie.
