The winsome boy was killed two years ago in a tragic gun accident in his home. He was just 10 years old. An avid athlete Luke participated in every little league sport the town had to offer including football, baseball and basketball as well as being just one of a handful of students at West Wendover elementary to pass the president’s Physical Fitness Test.

“The Gregory family feels very fortunate to be part of a supporting and caring community.” Wrote his mother Melissa. “We are thankful to the Recreation District for supporting us in the placement of Luke’s bronze statue at the new baseball fields.”
The Life size statue was created by Tooele artist Dan Snarr.
