Hiking Tuckermans ravine with Greg and our Irregulo crew from Stratton

He is styling the shorts 

Sitting on the beach in Hilton Head today thinking about the time 15 years ago that my family, my sister and her family and Greg and his family all rented a house for a week down here to celebrate my dad’s 70th. Not only did we all survive a week together, we had a lot of fun! I’ll have a smile on my face today remembering that. Missing you Pal. 

Greg would be proud of our vegetable garden that he started 4 years ago. It's tended with love!

Remembering Greg putting in my raised bed garden in the pouring rain. Wearing "the hat" today!

On the one year anniversary of Greg’s passing, our thoughts and prayers are with Greg’s loving family, especially his boys who continue to spread his joy and plant seeds for the vision he had for them.  May every day that passes be filled with the positive energy he brought to the world for them and all who knew him.  

To the Jester Family,

I was shocked and deeply saddened to recently hear about Greg’s passing.  I hired Greg to join me at Barr Laboratories over 20 years ago and we worked together closely for many years.  Over the past several years, we stayed in touch as he took on different executive roles at a number of different companies.   I will always remember Greg’s dedication, enthusiasm, diligence, sense of humor, and how much he talked about his boys.   He was a good man. 

Please accept my deepest condolences

Dear Bev... I am so sorry to hear that you have lost your son... what a lovely man ... a loss to many I am sure... my love to you and Nick and Suzanne and all of the family...Jane

I knew of Greg as a smart, honorable and decent businessman.
I had lunch with him in Manhattan a few weeks ago
He always was humble and kind in a world that often prizes ruthlessness and arrogance.
May he now walk with the Lord on the final journey to heaven that we pray we all take when our eyes close for the last time.
God bless and Godspeed Greg
Tony


Greg,
When I think of you, I will remember the unmeasurable pride and love you have for your sons. 
Thank you for teaching me to ski on a powder day when you wanted to be anywhere but the Cub Carpet, for giving me the love of hiking (against my initial lack of enthusiasm), and most importantly, for showing me how to “let go of the outcome”.
You will be missed.  
Godspeed.

So many beautiful memories and so heartbroken... I will always love you Greg Jester! 

A text from Greg last fall. He got so much joy from his vegetable gardening. Words cannot express how much he will be missed.

Greg Jester made a huge difference in the world he touched, and that difference will continue to blossom through the lives of those he influenced most, the ones he loved and called sons.  

We will all miss him terribly, but we must believe we will continue to see him everyday in so many ways, until we are together again in the Kingdom.

So, I offer this as a prayer for all of us, that we cherish every moment of every life we encounter, for God's glory, and we help each other move on when moving is out of the question.

Family football will never be the same without you Pal, but I promise to carry on and play with the zest and intensity that you always did (even though I can’t catch)! We love you!! Lady, John, Nick and Elizabeth ❤️

A great guy, an Irregulo skier who will be with us every Powder day, Mt Washington - Tuckerman’s hike, Magic Mt days, Stratton in ice or snow and Alaska trips to send great photos.  He is always with us, skiing, of coarse at Jesters’s fast pace.  Your friends always Jim Wachala and all the Irregulo Crew. 

Tiffany, Tyler, Matt & all of Greg’s family,

I’m so sorry to hear of the sudden loss of Greg . You are in my thoughts and prayers. 

Greg (we called him Jester), was a fraternity brother and close friend at University of Richmond. We couldn’t have had more fun at UR and stayed in touch when he and Tiffany moved to Greenwich. 

I can remember when Tyler & Matt were born and how Greg was so proud of his boys .We used to compare notes on all of the things we were messing up as new dads. He was also very proud of their athletic achievements, being an excellent athlete himself (he was our standout at
all of the fraternity intramural competitions).  But mostly, he was just proud of the fine young men they had become. 

Greg was always finding the fun in a situation and never took himself too seriously. I’ll miss him  dearly, and all the good times that were still to come. 

God bless,

John McDonough 

Greg, 
Bossy Evette & Binal will miss you so much. 
You taught us so many things. 
You were a funs boss. 
You loved your sons. 

God Hold You Close...


Tiffany, Tyler and Matt,

Words  cannot express the shock of losing Greg. The people that walk up mountains are supposed to outlive those of us that are watching from the base.

Greg and I had so many great times on the baseball fields coaching together. He always kept everything in perspective. Never one to hold back an opinion or thought but very positive with the kids.

I will miss him.

Time is the greatest healer...

Sad news to hear in a difficult time. I  hope to share a memory of him as  I knew him to be, which was a tremendous athlete.  I have known Gregory- we had this private lasting inside gig where we both called each other by full names except mine extended to be "lightning"-  since I can remember. He was a teammate of mine in all different sports for a period close to 17 years. It all started with Newtown Edgemont Little League. We were on the same team for four years and won every year. The Dodgers, then the Majors as the Yankees, The Majors win was the icing on the top. His father Tony was the manager, Bev was the team mom, Sisters Karen and Suzanne would show up. It was a fun, eventful time for everyone. Winning the Little League Championship those years were a big deal. We were then lucky to be chosen to represent Newtown for what is currently known as the 'All-Star". With Tony as the coach, we won the District title, and it was a long time in between when Newtown Little League won anything and to win the District back then was a big deal. When your 11-12, everything was a big deal and sharing it with, family, the town was fun. A "sandlot" experience as a kid, except Greg, didn't go and kiss the lifeguard, as that would have been kissing his sister! We then go our separate ways in life, but we would catch up from time to time. To the Jester Family, stay strong in this trying time. 

Gregory, tell Tony, I still use a knife to cut my corn while you're in heaven at the dinner table with him. 

God Speed my friend! 

Patrick "Lightning" Monahan
