Carlos Daniel Gregory, 80, entered into eternal rest on Sunday, July 19, 2015, at Valley Regional Medical Center in Brownsville, Texas with his family at his side.
Born in San Diego, Texas, Carlos had been a resident of Brownsville for numerous years. Carlos was an Army veteran who served our country proudly. Carlos served our community for 30+ years as a school administrator for the BISD, where he impacted the lives of countless of our community's youth. Carlos was deeply loved and will be profoundly missed not only by his family and friends but by all those fortunate to have known him.
Carlos was preceded in death by his mother, Catarina Gregory, and a sister, Norma Lavios.
Carlos is survived by his wife of 50+ years, Irma M. Gregory; four sons: Carlos D. (Victoria) II, Michael A. (Cynthia), Stephen P. (Eileen), and John A. Gregory; the ten grandchildren that were his pride and joy: Emily, Lauren, Madeleine, Carlos D. III, Jonah, Kristen, Michael A. II, Joshua, Isabella, and Michaela Gregory; along with numerous nieces, nephews, and other extended members of the family.
