Gregory grew up in Corona, Queens, graduating from Brooklyn High School of Automotive Trades. After serving in the U.S. Army, Gregory worked for the NYC Transit Authority for 20 years. In his retirement, Gregory worked for the Mets Port St. Lucie training facility for decades. Throughout his years, he also enjoyed working at car dealerships in a variety of roles.
In addition to his hard work, Gregory enjoyed spending winters in Florida with his wife Linda, watching football and baseball, especially the NY Yankees. While still living in Huntington, Gregory could be found outside tending to his garden or caring for his home. His greatest joy came from enjoying a home cooked meal with his family and friends, those cooked by his wife Linda being his favorite.
