Helen is survived by her sons, Dave and Chris Gregory; 8 grandchildren, 6 great-grandchildren, 2 great- great-grandchildren and numerous loving nieces, nephews, and friends. Helen was born on July 28, 1931, in Sulphur Springs, TX. She lived her early life in an idyllic countryside setting surrounded by family and community who instilled in her a strong Christian ethic and distinct Texas personality. Her family later moved to San Antonio, TX where she met and married her beloved husband, Walter Gregory. As a homemaker and mother, she lovingly raised 3 sons, dedicating her life to the growth and well-being of her family. For many years Helen selflessly volunteered at her children’s and grandchildren’s schools, working daily; she became affectionately known as “Aunt Helen” or “Grandmother” to all the school’s children. Helen was especially dedicated to serving her family and was always there with love and support no matter how great the need might be. She was our cherished family matriarch, her great strength and character sustained and strengthened us, and her loving example will guide our family for many generations to come. She will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved her. Visitation will be Tuesday, March 22, 2022, from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m. at Mission Park Funeral Chapels South.
