Bruce Gregory

Bruce lived a life filled with love and joy that was infectious and felt by everyone that knew him. Bruce blessed us all with his smile, sense of humor and tenderness.

Bruce was born to Horace and Hazel Gregory on July 14, 1936 in Worthington, Minnesota. Bruce was one of three siblings. Growing up Bruce collected baseball cards and pennants and spent a lot of his free time on the pond ice skating and playing hockey. Bruce and his family moved to California in 1955. His great love story with Judy Wellmon began on August 23, 1959 in Azusa, CA and lasted 60 years. Bruce worked as a draftsman and then an electronic packaging designer for 40 years. He enjoyed being a Boy Scout leader, singing in a barbershop quartet, making things with his hands and camping with his family. Bruce and Judy created many special memories while raising their sons, Jim and Jeff, as well as investing in the lives of Judy’s brothers, Dennis and David. Bruce loved his grandchildren dearly and connected with each one in his own special way. He loved his church family at Christ’s Church of the Canyon and was involved with Wrightwood’s Community Emergency Response Team.
