Jacob Gregory Obituary

Jacob A. Gregory

Sept. 26, 1990 - Feb. 21, 2022

Jacob passed away February 21, 2022 as a result of an automobile accident in Springfield Oregon. Jacob was born on September 26, 1990 to Kevin and Kari Gregory. He attended Mark Morris High School completing his education at Walla Walla Community College earning his GED and his HVAC certification in 2014. Jacob met his first love on October 29, 2007 when his daughter Addison was born. Meeting his next true love on January 27, 2018 when his second daughter Sienna Grace was born. He always said they would be his greatest accomplishments in his life.

Jacob worked construction out of the laborers hall 335 until a boating accident in 2018 left him unable to continue to work. His passion in life was anything outside. Fishing, crabbing, clam digging and hiking. He loved being along the water. That is where he solved all the world problems and got lost with his own thoughts. He was a free spirit that planned his day by which way the wind was blowing. His other passion in life was music, he could sit for hours listening to music. He always felt it was healing no matter what was going on in your life. He loved how it brought back memories from different areas of his life. He could dance even after the music stopped. Jacob never met a stranger, he was your friend as soon as he met you. He always had his deep faith and shared with anyone who would listen no matter the surroundings.

Jacob is survived by his parents, His daughter's Addison of E Palestine OH and Sienna of Castle Rock WA. His brothers, Skyler (Emily) Gregory and Kyle Gregory, all of Longview as well as 3 nieces and 2 nephews, and a large family that he loved dearly and many special friends

Jacob will be missed beyond measure

A private service will be held at a later date

My heart breaks for everyone who had the pleasure of knowing Jake. He truly can never be replaced. He had the most genuine soul, the kindest heart, and the most contagious smile. I´m so thankful for all our childhood memories, mayfield camping trips with our grandparents, jumping off cliffs and bridges, and can´t forget him calling me a "cry baby" at grandpas funeral to try and cheer me up. Love you forever and always cousin!
