David Gregory Obituary

David "Dave" Gregory II passed away on January 21st, 2026 in La Crosse at the age of 57.

Dave was born on June 26, 1968 to parents David Sr and Dian Hines Gregory. He attended St Pius X school during his formative years and was a graduate of Central High School.

Dave was a lifelong La Crosse resident and so cherished the many friends he met throughout his life. Wherever he went, anyone he met became an instant and lifelong friend!

He was an avid Packer fan and a proud stockholder of the team. And we can't forget to mention his love of music starting from a young age - especially many of the 80's heavy metal rock bands and his all time favorite KISS and the KISS Army members!

He is survived by wife, Desiree Ehlert of Tucson, Ariz.; daughter, Olyvia and her son, Huzefah; son, Devin of Tucson; his mother, Dian of La Crosse; brother, Daniel; and many aunts, uncles, and cousins. He was preceded in death by his father, David; uncles, Dan Hines, Timothy, Steven, and Peter Gregory; all grandparents and other family members.

For many years Dave battled medical issues. They stole his joy, his future and eventually his life. We will hold onto memories of the man whose spirit and tender heart brightened our lives.

Missing and loving you always David and praying you had a blessed journey to the Land of Beautiful Souls.

Best neighbor ever. Always music coming from his garage and when I knew the artist or tune, I would yell it across the street, Lots of Halloween decorations in yard for all to enjoy every year. And always volunteering to help me with whatever I needed. I miss you, Dave!

Dave was a neighbor for years. I´ll never forget the music every day, that he could, coming from his garage. Some days I would recognize the tune and yell out the name of the band. And the huge display of Halloween decorations in his yard every year! He and Devin were always willing to lend a hand if I needed help with most anything. Always a smile on his face.....Miss you, Dave!

"KISS Army" Dave.....you were the kindest, gentlest soul. Met back in the days of Rock Fest in Cadott at the KISS Army Tent. Spent a LOT of time just chillin' and talking, despite myself working Security. You were always welcoming. Spoke highly, and often of your love for your family. Even after your time at Fest ended, you would always check in on people. ROCK ON in heaven dude.

I grew up with him. We used to jump couch to couch to avoid the alligators game. Ate cinnamon toast together. Avoided the Purple Gorilla We made a 8mm movie called "Little Beerman" All the block had fun when we showed it. He sure could smile. It was my benefit to see it everyday. RIP David.
