The pilot who died in a weekend plane crash in Florida is an alumnus of an Upstate University. 55 year old, Jeff Gregory the Captain of the Learjet 60 was a class of 1993 graduate of Bob Jones University.

The jet had taken off from Texas and was headed to the Bahamas when it crashed in Palm Beach County, Florida. Reports say, that as the aircraft went down, a man’s voice could be heard reciting the Lord’s Prayer during the co-pilot’s final radio transmissions.

That voice is believed to be Gregory's. The National Transportation Safety Board or NTSB is expected to release a preliminary report in the coming weeks.
