Born February 26, 1957 in Danbury, CT, he was student body president of Danbury High School for the class of 1975. He earned a Bachelors of Science degree from Fairfield University in 1979, and a Juris Doctorate from George Washington University in 1988.
Later in life, Brian returned to school, earning a Masters in Counseling from Western Connecticut State University. He spent the first half of his career practicing law and the last half working in social services.
A long-time member of Alcoholics Anonymous, Brian was passionate about helping others through their sobriety journey. Always quick with a joke, Brian could be counted on to be the funniest in the room. Somehow he was able to find a facial expression to bring hilarity to any situation. His dry wit and characteristically raised eyebrow were hallmarks of his effervescent personality.
Brian will be remembered for his wonderful laughter, his awesome dance moves, his uncanny ability to mimic anything, and his ridiculous coffee order - 4 cream 4 sugars.
He was preceded in death by his mother, Dolores (Smith) Gregory.
He is survived by his daughter, Elise Gregory; his father, Peter Gregory; and his brother, Michael Gregory.
A Memorial Service will be held at 5:00 pm on Wednesday, September 25, 2024 at St. Stephen Church, 353 Main St., Ridgefield, CT.
