Judy Polston Gregory, daughter of Sidney and Memorie Polston passed away on Sunday, June 21, 2020.
Judy always said she was a jack of all trades and master of none. In her lifetime she was a dance and piano teacher, hairdresser, realtor, and most recently a history teacher. She earned her BS in Education at the age of 45 from Southern Arkansas University in Magnolia. She taught history in Stamps, Helena-West Helena, and North Little Rock School districts. She was always excited to run into a former student and tell them how proud she was of them.
After retirement, she stayed busy being a docent at the Clinton Presidential Library, was past president of the Maumelle AARP chapter, and taught dance, history, as well as keyboarding at the Maumelle Senior Wellness Center. She always enjoyed helping others.
She was married for 43 years to Wayne Gregory, who proceeded her in death.
Survivors include her children Curtis Gregory (Tracey) of Helena and Cydney Gregory Pearce (John) of Hailey, ID. She had four grandsons, Heath Gregory of New Orleans, Louisiana, Brett Gregory of Little Rock, Seth Pearce of Pocatello, Idaho, and Tate Pearce of Hailey, Idaho. She is also survived by her sister Shirley Sloate of Springfield, Missouri.
Burial at Maple Hill Cemetery. Memorial service planned for later this summer.
