Gregory Scot Kinkade was born on April 30, 1963, in Oildale, California, 13 minutes after his brother.
He grew up in the Sierra Nevada Mountains and so a love of the outdoors came naturally to him. He loved to hunt and fish. His favorite fishing trip was a multi-day event by boat out of San Diego, California, which he talked about for years.
Gregory was a cabinet maker by trade, which he worked at for many years in California. He built cabinets for residential, businesses and even hospitals. In 2009, he moved to the Mansfield, Missouri, area with the rest of his family. He worked at various cabinet shops in the Springfield area.
Gregory is survived by his parents, sister, nieces, nephew, great-nieces, great-nephew, and other relatives.
He is missed greatly by all who knew him. God bless you, Gregory. Mom and Dad love you very much and we miss you.
