ROBERT GREGUS

1961 - 2008

Robert Lee Paul Gregus was called home to his Father in heaven on Thursday, September 4, 2008 at the age of 47 years.
Robert was born on May 10, 1961, the third child of John and Irene Gregus. He was raised and educated in Taber, graduating from St. Mary’s High School. He married Tina Martin on November 22, 2003. Robert was never at a loss for words and had the biggest heart around. To find out anything that was going on in town you just needed to call Robert.
Jellybelly, affectionately nicknamed by his friends, loved family gatherings, cooking, fishing and was a proud Montreal Canadians and Dallas Cowboys fan as well as an avid Edmonton Eskimos fan. In his younger years he played Lacross and hockey and later coached hockey and softball. Robert was active in his church and held many callings. His favorite food was Kentucky Fried Chicken and of course Taber corn.
