The
surname "Gregg" means
"watchful". The design
of the shield reflects
the prayer in Psalms 141
utilizing the concept of
watchfulness. The
portcullis is a heavy
metal gate which guards
the door of a castle.
The one who guards the
gate is Christ. His
symbol, the cross,
appears above. The
armiger's motto is "Give
Glory to the Lord". The
Crest is a lamb
symbolizing how the
shepherds kept watch.
The lamb is holding a
branch of almond which
has anciently been
regarded as a symbol of
spring and the idea of
watchfulness. As the
armiger is a
businessman, the helmet
is a "tilting helmet".
The armiger was a Staff
Sergeant in the US Army
Reserves-ASA (Army
Security Agency) from
1960-1966. He was
awarded the Burlington
County Medal for
Military Service.
Sgt. Gregg is married to
Jacquelyn D. Gregg (nee
Brennen) and they have
two children, Michael
Paul Gregg and Frank
Richard Gregg.
Sgt. Gregg retired from
the defence division of
Computer Sciences
Corporation.
