My prayer is that he is out of pain and looking over Lisa. We meet people we are meant to meet and God made sure I met these 2 wonderful human beings.
Praying for Lisa to be comforted always.
Lisa, thank you for letting me know of Greg's passing. When I hired Greg as an Electrician at BD little did I know that he and I would become best of friends. Not only was he perfect for the position, but also as a friend. I will miss cutting down trees with him, Bohemian beers, MercyMe & Crowder, our Sunday text's. He was the best!
Friends come into your life & make a huge impact. Lisa you are that person. Through you I got to know your soulmate, Greg. What an envious relationship you two shared. I was lucky enough to see the mutual respect & admiration you had for each other. Greg was so knowledgeable about current events & of course his love of the Bible & Jesus Christ. He made me feel like family immediately. As much as you will miss him, you know where he is & how happy he is. BE STILL & KNOW

Sorry to hear see that Greg passed away. Very talented technician I will always remember our talks about various issues. I hadn't seen him for about two years. I know he was sure excited to get to retirement.
Gone way to soon my friend.
Rest in peace.

I remember going through a very difficult time in my life and Greg would always lift my spirits by giving me verses from the Bible to encourage me and help me move forward. Later being able to meet Lisa, his wife and we became good friends. My biggest condolences to his family and his wife Lisa may God carry you through this moment in life.

The world is a lesser Place without Gregg... soon after he got to BD he and I were good friends. one of the smarter people I ever met, anything i need help with he was always there and ready to help and offer ideas. we worked on several projects together I lost track of him after i retired... I know he couldn't wait my friend i hope the sky's are blue and the beer is cold!
My deepest apologies for lacking the words to describe the loss. I never had the pleasure of meeting you. But Greg would mention you many times as the best thing that has ever happen to him and how much he loved you. I will miss him greatly as a friend and fellow Veteran God Speed my brother we will see each other again in the next.

I treasure our friendship and our all-night talks on the jumpseat together!
May God bless you and comfort you through this life! I love you!

I'm sorry to hear about Greg, may you find comfort in your memories of him. My heart aches for you. My hope is that you are surrounded by good people in this vulnerable times.
Lisa, I am so very sorry to hear of your beloved husband’s passing. Certainly nothing can prepare you for such a sudden loss. May you find moments of peace as you remember and honor his love for you and for the Lord above. He’s now resting in the loving arms of his Father. Sending whole hearted prayers to you.
Had funny feeling to check on greg, found he'd passed away. Suddenly no. Greg was diagnosed at 25 with lupus. Average lifespan from diagnosis is 40 years. Greg lived a very good life, 40 years beyond diagnosis, some off the backs of others. He's now on the other side atoning for his life, like we all will, & he has a lot to atone. Best regards to his widow, lisa. Life goes on - as it always has.
Lisa,
We were so sorry to hear of Greg's passing. He will be remembered and missed. I hope you are doing well in this difficult time. The Faust family has made a donation in Greg's name to the Rescue Mission of Salt Lake in the hope that someone else may receive help because of Greg's and your generosity. We'll be thinking of you.
Uncle Herb, Jeff, Lynn, Sheryl, and Mark
So sorry for your loss
