Gregory, who was 46 years old, was found on June 13 in a car in the bank’s parking lot. The cause of his death has not been confirmed. The actor was accompanied by his service dog, a small pug named Hans, who was also dead.

Sources close to him believe he was at the bank to deposit his residual acting checks from his time on the famous NBC series when he fell asleep in his car and died of heatstroke due to the extreme hot climate in the area, according to the website TMZ.

Rebecca, the actor’s sister, said that Gregory suffered from depression, bipolar disorder, and had a sleep disorder that normally forced him to stay awake for days. She suggested that fans make donations in Gregory’s name to causes he supported, such as the Actors Equity Foundation or the ASPCA.

Gregory starred in 101 episodes as Brian Tanner in the series Alf, which aired from 1986 to 1990. He left Hollywood in 2003 when he enlisted in the U.S. Navy and became an airbrush companion. He was honorably discharged in 2005.
