Gregory was born on 5/26/59 in the Bronx, NY to Stanley William Roelker and Catherine Mary Pagano. Gregory moved from New York to Denver, CO in 1972. He earned his bachelors in business at Fort Lewis College in Durango, CO in 1982.
Gregory worked many years as a real estate appraiser for World Savings, while serving in the Air Force Reserves as an aircraft mechanic. Later he served briefly with the Denver Police Department and then went on to work at Signature Flight Support, servicing jets. In 2018 he moved to St. Johns, where he most recently worked for the St Johns Sheriff Department as a Public Safety Officer.
Although Gregory’s focus in college was business, his love was aviation; he earned his private pilot’s license in 1987. Additional passions included WWII history, golf and he recently acquired his drone license. Gregory was an engineer at heart and loved creating gadgets that made life easier.
Gregory is survived by his wife Lorrie Roelker, his son Jordan Roelker and two brothers Dennis and Stan Roelker. He was preceded in death by his brother Kenneth Roelker and his parents.
Gregory will be greatly missed; we wish him well on his next journey in life.
