My deepest sympathies to Jan and Greg, Jr. I had the privileged of working with Greg, Sr. for these last 11 years. He always had the best stories to share with me in that hour. I will truly miss his big smile. Always was a true gentleman. I will pray for you and may his soul be with our lord Jesus Christ.

Our Uncle Greg

To Jack and I you were more than just an Uncle, you were truly a good friend and like a father when our dad was fighting the fight of his life with cancer. You were always there for us in the sun and in the rain. After our dad got ill, you started to call our house every other day to checkup on us to see if we were okay or if my mom needed anything; and I remember you always telling my mom “sweetheart, I am just a phone call away.” You were our solid Uncle Greg.
 Uncle Greg, you made us laugh and you made us cry. My mom always says you were a heck of a guy. I hope up there in heaven that you can see the footprints that you left in each one of our lives. Because of the road you traveled, we are “all” better and stronger people.
 Dear God, please take our uncle's hand and guide him through heaven and reunite him with the family and friends that went before him. Thank you for sharing Uncle Greg with us. We will never forget him, as he will live in our hearts and souls forever.

Love,

Jillian and Jack

As I set and listened to the praises said about Gregory Dean Brittain, I could not help but think I wish I had the opportunity to meet him.  I was present because I know his son, Greg Jr., through my daughter.  From all the stories told and giving thought about Greg Jr., I could not help but see this man's life through his son.  I better understand why Greg Jr. loves to study nature - his dad's influence.  
On this Father's Dad, I pray that those who heard the words about this father and God our Holy father, will take a deep look at their relationship with their own dad and cherish every moment with him as though it was their last.  Appreciate your father, dad or pops today, this Father's Dad, and rejoice and be glad for ALL that he has given you, no matter how small.

Some of the best times of my life where spent with Greg in them. Weather he was getting us in troube or out of trouble, picking on us or portecting us he was a big brother to all of us and had a big influence on my life.
He will be dearly missed and the world is a little darker.
My condolences to Jan, Greg Jr. and all that knew him.

I remember a time in our youth - Brothers, sisters, cousins, best friends, always together.  Football, baseball in the cul-de-sac, fishing off the pier in Huntington and riding our bikes to the beach - oh Greg, those were the days.  The time I remember most is when we were all playing baseball in the cul-de-sac, and you hit a homerun, and the ball hit the windshield of the old gent just outside of the cul-de-sac.  We all took off running in every direction but you my dear brother ran the fastest of all.  Eventually, you owned up to it and mom paid dearly for the window replacement but looking back now, I understand we were living the dream.  Every day was magical because you were a part of our lives.

I remember, together as teens (you, Jerry, Marty & me), the fighting and arguing and all that happy times in between.  The laughing and joking till tears filled our eyes and rolled down our flush checks.  And, oh how I loved to host those house parties; you would walk in the house on returning from Camp Pendleton, and shake your head and just smile.  I never told you but I always knew that stayed close to home just in the event I needed you.   I loved that about you. 

I remember our last time together sitting and talking in your private room at City of Hope.  The room was filled with laughter as you joked with Carl, Billie & I.  It will be a moment that will live on in my heart forever.  God blessed me that day by showing me the old Greg with the vivacious smile, and stories of a happier time.  

Greg, thank you my dear brother for giving me and Jerry the best gift of all, a friendship that will last an eternity.  I know we will see one another again, and we will pick-up just exactly where we left off…..with love, laughter and great joy.  I love you today, tomorrow and for always.

A wonderful man with a wonderful heart.  The epitome of a true gentleman and family man.  My deepest sympathies to Jan and Greg, Jr. and the entire Brittain family.  Greg Sr. played a big part in our Scout lives and helped shape our boys into men of honor and commitment.  We are blessed to have known him.  I will greatly miss his friendly smile and warm nature.

The biggest smile and the little wink he gave you when first you meet, he will be missed. 
Greg Sr. was a huge part of my boys life in Scouts and in our life and he will be missed. We all send out love and deepest sympathy. Love you The Watson family, Dennis, Jud, Matt and Andrew

Jan and family,  

I offer my sincerest sympathy.  You are in my thoughts and prayers.  I was very privileged to know Greg, and I appreciated his great humor and good nature, as well as his courage and faith.  He was a very special man, and he will be greatly missed.

Jan
I am happy to share about my contacts with you and Greg and how he blessed me with a special attitude about what he was facing.  He loved his family and especially his small group friends--and, from what I saw and heard, he had no fear of death.  He was trusting in Jesus completely.  Jim Redden
