He leaves his wife, Sophie; son Steve and wife Ellen; daughter Sarena and husband Michael; grandsons Peter, Matthew, Cole and granddaughter Cadence.
Born in Manila, Philippines December 24, 1935, Greg spent the early years of his life completing a degree in mechanical engineering and going into business for himself. As a result of a challenge between his friends, Greg and Sophie met and together wrote their own love story lasting 57 years.
A new adventure began in 1975 as the family immigrated to Canada where they settled in Vancouver. In the years that followed, Greg embraced his entrepreneurial spirit and proudly co-owned and operated a residential construction company until his retirement in 1998.
Long known for his positive outlook on life, taste of adventure and his sense of humor, it was no surprise Greg spent the remaining years of his life travelling and enjoying the company of his family and friends.
A private memorial service will be held on April 9, 2020 for family members and friends. In lieu of donations or flowers, prayers would be appreciated.
