Gregg D. Alexander

Gregg D. Alexander, 56, of Kempton left to be with his Lord and Savior on Tuesday, August 16, 2022 knowing he was deeply loved by his family and friends yet confident knowing there was something greater awaiting him.

Gregg was born on July 26, 1966 to Lloyd and Judy (Griffith) Alexander, who survive. He also had two sisters, Lisa Alexander and Lora Alexander. He married Joni (Hussey) Alexander on June 16, 1990 and they built a beautiful life together. They had three spectacular daughters; Kenzie Thyen, Kiersten Baugher, and Karley Alexander. His three daughters then chose three amazing men to add to the family, Alex Thyen, Zack Baugher, and Corby Hawn. Gregg’s first grandchild, Cooper Thyen, was born in May and Gregg was thrilled. Gregg is also survived by his in-laws, John and Judy Hussey, Joe Hussey, Rob and Jamie Hunter, a nephew, two nieces, and their spouses.

Gregg was a lifelong farmer on his family farm that had been passed down from generation to generation, which made him so proud. He enjoyed researching genealogy and keeping in touch with relatives. Gregg was a lifetime member of Kempton M. E. Church and was passionate about the church, his faith, and the people that attended.

He was a 1984 graduate of Tipton High School and a 1986 graduate of Purdue Short Course. He was also a member of Tipton County Soil and Water Conservation District. Gregg served passionately on the Co-Alliance Board of Directors and enjoyed it immensely. His wit, his boisterous laughter, and his ear-piercing whistle will be missed by all that loved him.

A celebration of Gregg’s life will be held at 3:00 p.m. on Monday, August 22 at Rock Prairie Church, 421 Ash Street, Tipton with Rev. Melissa Litka presiding. Burial will follow in Kempton Cemetery. Visitation will be from 1:00 p.m. until the time of the service at the church. Young-Nichols Funeral Home is in charge of the arrangements.
