As a community, we lift prayers of comfort and healing for Gregory鈥檚 family, teammates and friends. We will also organize a Tribute Board so that our community can share their memories, photos and videos of Gregory with the Harder family.
Gregory was a member of the university鈥檚 football team and was pursuing his Masters in Athletic Training. He was thrilled to be pursuing a degree he was so passionate about.
