John G. Gregory ’56

John Gregg Gregory died Dec. 1, 1994, in Savannah, Ga., after a short illness. John was born in Bedford, Va., and came to Princeton from Episcopal H.S. He majored in architecture, dined at Cloister Inn, and was v.p. of Triangle. John later earned an M.B.A. from Harvard Business School.

After tours of duty with Empire Trust Co., the Coast Guard, and Stanford Research Institute, John was director of resource development at Union Camp Corp. for ten years, during which time he worked on a project called The Landings On Skidaway Island near Savannah. So impressed was he with the development that he left Union Camp and moved to Savannah, where he started his own company, Gregory & Associates, Inc., for real-estate consulting, design, and construction at Skidaway Island.

John devoted many hours to the Coastal Jazz Assn. and chaired the 1994 Coastal Jazz Festival.

John married and divorced twice. He is survived by his friend Catherine Mason; his son, Clarke; and two brothers, Edward D. Gregory Jr., '52, and Charles K. L. Gregory. To them, the class offers its condolences.
