View Full Version : Count Gregore finds himself facing foreclosure urbanity 08-11-2010, 09:12 AM http://www.okgazette.com/article/08-11-2010/A_spooky_staple_of_local_TV_for_years_Count_Gregor e_finds_himself_facing_a_new_battle.aspx ljbab728 08-11-2010, 10:18 PM http://www.okgazette.com/article/08-11-2010/A_spooky_staple_of_local_TV_for_years_Count_Gregor e_finds_himself_facing_a_new_battle.aspx I hope he does find a way to save his house but I have to wonder why an 82 year old man would want a house that large for just himself even if it holds a lot of memories. If I was finding myself in his situation, I think I would have been trying to sell the house long ago before I was in such a bad financial situation and find something smaller and more affordable. It is surely worth much more than he owes on it.

It is surely worth much more than he owes on it. The article says his daughter and her husband live with him (though the article didn't explain if they are financially contributing to the mortgage in any way) and his wife only died in 2009. He also faced several unexpected financial strains. Sad he apparently didn't invest, even in his own retirement. bluedogok 08-14-2010, 08:39 PM I used to work with his daughter as Sound Warehouse. She has had various medical problems over the years including being in a coma and partially paralyzed in a horse accident. I believe she has recovered from the paralysis but may still have some special needs for which the house has been modified for. jmarkross 08-15-2010, 06:29 AM Someone ought to raise a fund for him--he had lots of fans going way back--maybe Steve Lackmeyer would try to use his OPUBCO connections to help spread the word...he was an icon--going way back to when I was a kid--and I am 61...LET'S HELP THE COUNT! Gotta be something we can do to help an old friend... bluedogok 08-15-2010, 11:24 AM There is a Count Gregore Benefit Group page on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=135521019811495&ref=mf). jmarkross 08-16-2010, 11:12 AM There is a Count Gregore Benefit Group page on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=135521019811495&ref=mf).
