1935 - 2026
Bruce shared 65 loving years of marriage with his beloved wife, Judith “Judy” (Tills) Gregory, who passed away earlier this month on May 3.
Born in Attleboro on April 4, 1935, Bruce was the son of the late Louis and Mary (Hyde) Gregory. He was raised in Attleboro, spent several years living in New Hampshire, and made Medway his home for the past 55 years.
Bruce was a graduate of the University of New Hampshire and proudly served his country in the United States Army.
He dedicated many years of service to the United States Postal Service and became a familiar and respected presence in town as the longtime manager of the Medway Post Office on Village Street.
Bruce loved biking and traveling the country alongside Judy in their RV, creating treasured memories together throughout the United States, Mexico, and Canada.
A deeply active member of the community, Bruce served as a deacon at Medway Village Church, managed Oakland Cemetery on Barber Street, and faithfully rang the church bell every Memorial Day. He and Judy were especially known for warmly welcoming newcomers to the church, often inviting them into their home for dinner and making them feel like family. Many of those friendships lasted for decades.
Bruce is survived by his children: Barbara Gregory and her husband David Barnes of Richmond, Virginia; Lynn Gregory Larkin and her husband Thomas of Attleboro; and Kevin Gregory and his wife Lisa Carl Gregory of Norristown, Pennsylvania.
He was predeceased by his sister, Marylou Poynton.
Bruce also leaves behind his cherished grandchildren Crystal, Tyler, Alesya, Sam, Nicholas, Joseph, and Halle, along with his great-grandchild Sylar.
He will be remembered for his kindness, generosity, service to others, and the welcoming spirit he shared with everyone fortunate enough to know him.
Calling hours will be held Sunday, May 30th from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM at the Ginley Crowley Funeral Home, located at 3 Barber Street in Medway.
A celebration of Bruce’s life will be announced at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, donations in Bruce’s memory may be made to Medway Village Church, located at 170 Village Street in Medway.
