Joyce Darlene Wyatt Gregory, age 47
Lost to gun violence on March 2, 2005 in Cumberland City, Tennessee.
14-year-old Jason Clinard killed his bus driver, 47-year-old Joyce Gregory, as she stopped to pick him up. 24 students were on board the bus when the shooting happened, one of the students steered the bus to a stop against a utility pole, and another student ran to a nearby house to call 911. The ages of the students on the bus ranged from 5 to 17. None of the students were hurt. Gregory had earlier reported Clinard for using snuff on the school bus. Clinard was given a life sentence, but he has since filed for post-conviction relief.
