Gregory Allen Norris was born January 16, 1963 in Winterset, Iowa. He was the 4th child born to Harold E. and Darlene Crane Norris. Gregg spent his childhood in Russell, Iowa graduating in the class of 1981.
On September 23, 1989, he married his high school sweetheart, Vicki Benedict. They had one child, Crystal Dawn. The family moved to Chariton in 1992.
Gregg’s passion was playing the drums. He began playing a trumpet, but didn’t have enough wind to blow the thing. His music teacher suggested drums and that was it. Many can remember him playing in jazz band, pep band, The Norris Brothers and Sister Shell, and many rock bands such as Tyrant, Monsoon, Straight Shooter, Liquid Sunshine, Cylinder, AzIs (as is), and others when a fantastic drummer was needed. Mostly, he will be remembered for his years with ZEF.
Gregg was preceded in death by his parents, Harold E. and Darlene Crane Norris.
