Joseph J. Gregory Jr.

Obituary Date: Monday, December 19, 2016

In Loving Memory of Dr. Joseph J. Gregory, Jr. September 2, 1957 - December 19, 2016. Dr. Joe Gregory left a lasting impression on the lives of many people in his lifetime. As a devoted husband, loving father and a dedicated Chiropractor, he encouraged and inspired all to a healthy lifestyle.  In remembrance of his transition, we reflect on the precious memories we have of him. He is deeply missed and we are grateful for the time we spent with such an inspirational man.

He was born in Detroit, Michigan. Upon moving to Georgia, he received a Doctorate of Chiropractic degree on 1982 from Life Chiropractic College in Marietta, Ga, where he graduated Magna Cum Laude. Joe dedicated his complete professional career of 35 years to the healing arts of Chiropractic in his community.

Joe was a passionate outdoorsman. He cherished his time hunting and fishing not only for the challenge, but for the powerful presence and calming peace of Gods’ beautiful creation. As an avid gardener he looked forward to every spring, awaiting the task of sprouting seeds and reaping what he had sown.

In his professional career, he was very active in the Georgia Council of Chiropractic and served in many capacities on the Board of Directors for over 25 years. Joe was voted Chiropractor of the year in 2004.          He was also a member of the International Chiropractic Association, Optimist Club and Toast Masters.                                                                                   In the last year he donated his time to “Save the Horses.org”.  He attended Unity North Atlanta Church in Marietta, GA.

He is survived by his wife, Kim Bixby Gregory of 32 years and sons, Jason (28) & Jacob (27); Sister, Sharon Bringard (Greg), Oxford, Michigan;  Brothers, Dennis Gregory (Susan), Sterling Heights, Michigan; William Gregory (Cindy), Woodstock, Georgia; Brother-in-law, Mark Bixby (Karen), Roswell, Georgia; as well as loving nieces and nephews.  He is preceded in death by his parents, Joseph & Jeanette (Gielniak) Gregory & his brother Raymond Gregory, all of Michigan.

Memorial Service will be held Wednesday, December 28th, 2016 at 7:00 p.m. at Ingram Funeral Home Chapel in Cumming, GA. The Family will receive friends at Ingram Funeral Home on Wednesday, December 28th from 10:00 a.m. -12:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m. until the hour of Service.
