Gregg C.
Westberry
Mar 16, 1968 — Nov 10, 2024
Gregg Cornelius Westberry, 56, of Kingsland, GA passed away at Shands Hospital in Gainesville, FL on November 10, 2024, surrounded by family and friends.
Gregg was born on March 16, 1968 in Alma, GA to Clinton C. Westberry and Betty Jo Carter Westberry. He graduated from Appling High School in 1986 and joined the US Navy in 1987. While proudly serving his country, Gregg enrolled in Valdosta State University and later graduated with a Masters Degree in Adult Education. During his 26 years serving in the U.S. Navy, he served on several different submarines out of Kings Bay, GA as a Missile Technician. When not attached to a submarine command, Gregg served at a couple different shore duty stations such as SWFLANT in different roles. Gregg retired as Senior Chief after 26 years of service that included 22 patrols. He loved God and his family more than anything. Gregg was a hard worker, a giving person, and loved working with his hands. Gregg was the king of telling bad "dad" jokes just to make people laugh. He also enjoyed woodworking in which he would make retirement boxes for military friends. Being able to share that skill with friends made him proud. He was a fantastic husband, father, son, brother, and friend. Gregg was a fighter until the very end. He now resides in his Heavenly home but will be greatly missed by his family and friends.
Survivors are his wife of 32 years, Tina Westberry of Kingsland, GA. Children, Jessica L. Westberry and Sydnie G. Westberry both of Kingsland, GA. Mother, Betty Jo Westberry of Baxley, GA. Brother, James C. Westberry (Tammy) of Baxley, GA. Nieces and Nephew, Kyle Westberry, Kala Hodges (Garrett), and Kristen Westberry all of Alma, GA and numerous cousins.
