Gregory Paul Vinyard Sr.'s Obituary
Gregory Paul Vinyard, Sr., age 71 of Millsboro, DE, passed away peacefully, after a long battle with cancer, on Friday, September 2, 2022, at his home surrounded by his family. He was born on January 6, 1951, in Ligonier, PA, son of the late George and Hette (Holland) Vinyard.
Mr. Vinyard spent his working career as a salesman, retiring to Delaware in 2018, after many dedicated years in the industry. He enjoyed coastal living and everything it had to offer, particularly fishing, casting a line at every opportunity and combing the beach for sea glass, collecting the treasures as often as he could. An avid golfer, Mr. Vinyard also enjoyed hitting the links whenever possible. Above all, he cherished time with those he held most dear. Mr. Vinyard was a loving and devoted husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle, and friend. Loved by many, he will be deeply and genuinely missed by all who had the good fortune to know him.
Mr. Vinyard is survived by his beloved wife, Martha Vinyard; his children: Gregory Paul Vinyard, Jr, Jason Patrick Vinyard, and Lori Ann Vinyard-Chase; his grandchildren: Drew Vinyard, Madisyn Vinyard, Aspen Vinyard, Payton Chase, Jackson Chase, and Carson Chase; his brothers: George Vinyard (Ann) and Curtis Vinyard (Suzanne); and his many nieces and nephews.
A celebration of life will be held privately.
