Todd Laney Gregory

December 2, 1962 ~ April 27, 2023
Born in:
Merkel, Texas
Resided in:
College Station, Texas
Todd Laney Gregory, age 60, of College Station, Texas passed away suddenly from natural causes on April 27, 2023.
He is survived by his wife Karen; son Tanner; daughter-in-law Lucy; grandson Rocky; mother June; nephew Duncan Stanley; and brother-in-law Stacy Stanley. He was preceded in death by his father Joe, and sister Lisa (Stanley).
Todd was born and raised in Merkel, Texas. He earned his BBA in Finance from Texas Tech University. He then moved to San Francisco to start his career at Chevron. After 9 years in the Bay area, the family moved to College Station to be closer to extended family when Tanner was born. It was there he began his 24 year career at Texas A&M University in Financial Management Operations where he served as a Director.
He began dating Karen in 2005 and while they only had 18 years together, they made the most of them! Todd loved to travel and was looking forward to having the time for longer trips in retirement. He and Karen took an annual trip to the Florida gulf coast (along Scenic Hwy 30A) where they enjoyed many beautiful sunsets on the beach. Some of Todd’s favorite travels included hiking, especially in National Parks, and a Mediterranean cruise from Istanbul to Rome.
Todd was a family man. His favorite part of the week was Sunday afternoons when Tanner, Lucy and Rocky came to “GiGi’s house” to spend time with Papa G and GiGi. Todd loved playing with little Rocky, but also cherished the opportunity to see his son whom he loved with all his heart and soul!
Todd loved music and especially enjoyed listening under the stars at an amphitheater. Sports were a big part of his life as well, especially Texas Tech sports. He was very proud that his son was a Division 1 athlete on the track team at Texas Tech. Todd played softball and golf in his adult life and enjoyed an evening walk with Karen most weekdays.
Todd was taken from us too soon and his memory will be cherished by numerous family, friends and colleagues.
Funeral services for Todd will be at 3:00 pm Friday, May 5, 2023 at Callaway-Jones Funeral and Cremation Center in Bryan with a time of visitation one hour prior to service.

My deepest sympathies to his family and direct coworkers.

I was saddened to hear of Todd’s passing. Todd was always polite, professional, and courteous. I have worked with him in the world of Property management since he’s been at the University and always appreciated his guidance and support to me and my team. May his family and friends find comfort.
This is so hard to process, and I know it must be even more so for Karen. Todd was a great friend and colleague and will be missed. Please know you are in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
What a fantastic picture of Todd…I can hear his laugh and see him either shaking his head at me or agreeing wholeheartedly about something we would talk about for property. Todd was one of the first property managers I met with the A&M System back in 2001. He was a tremendous asset (he’ll appreciate the pun) and will be missed more than words can ever say. Karen, you are in my thoughts, always. Much love, Erin

Todd was an amazing person and a strong leader. Matthew and I send our prayers to Karen and their family. Karen and Todd are precious people who provide so much light and encouragement to all of us. Todd worked in a way we all respected. He researched every detail when he worked on a project and he shared his research to ensure we all could weigh in and be in agreement. He demanded excellence from himself and inspired us. He is part of our A&M family forever. We miss him and know he is in a beautiful place.

My deepest condolences to the Gregory family.
He is an angel in heaven now looking down upon all his loved ones.
I was so shocked to hear of Todd’s passing. He was too young to have left us. As Texas A&M Galveston’s Property person for years Todd was my go to Godsend. He was always kind and patient with me. I really appreciated him. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

To Todd’s family, this man will be truly missed. Missed because of his gentleness and desire to educate others. Once you knew him, he never forgot you. May God’s peace be with all of you in this hour.
“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will award to me on that Day, and not only to me but also to all who have loved his appearing.” 2 Timothy 4:7-8
There is no right way to go on this journey of grief. We can only go about this in our own way, with the help of our loved ones and God’s assistance.
Karen and family, you’ve been in my prayers since I heard of this loss, and I continue to keep you there.
