Gregory was born on October 26, 1953 to Robert and Izola Thomas in Cincinnati, Ohio. After graduating from Hughes High School in 1972, he went on to work at various occupation one of which was at Ohio Knife Company. Due to an injury on the job, he had to seek other employment. Gregory’s favorite occupation was as an auto mechanic, a field which he endeavored to do the rest of his life. He was quite well known around the community and city for his expertise in the trade, to which he gained great pride! Even with failing health, he always made time to help others. His voice always had a smile to it no matter when you talked to him!
