Gregory Hilbert Obituary


Gregory Allen Hilbert Jr., age 16, of Fleetwood, passed on June 4 in The Reading Hospital & Medical Center.

Born in Phoenixville on August 1, 1996, he was a son of Gregory A. Hilbert Sr. and Victoria L. (Lazowicki) Hilbert.

Music was his life and playing the guitar his passion. As a junior at Oley Valley High School, where he was known as the school's resident guitarist, he always had his guitar and played whenever possible. Greg loved to play guitar, bass and drums. He also wrote his own music. Greg was a very loving and caring person, who was concerned about the world and why people could not live in peace. Greg loved being outdoors and going on nature walks. Eating healthy was a major part of his life and he would lecture friends and family on eating the healthiest foods.

He is survived by his parents and brothers, Nikolas A. Hilbert, at home, and Joshua Hilbert of Wilmington, DE. Also maternal grandparents, John A. and Kristine (Poust) Lazowicki of Inverness, FL, and paternal grandparents, Ernest and Barbara (Greiss) Hilbert of Bechtelsville, and maternal great-grandmother, Helen Poust.

Funeral services will be held Tuesday June 11 at 2:00 p.m. from New Bethel Church, 135 New Bethel Church Road, Kempton. A viewing will be from 1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. at the church. Burial will follow in the church cemetery.

Memorial contributions can be made to Oley Valley High School for the music program. Online condolences can be made at MaeStump-FuneralHome.com.

My husband and I were on the golf course before the accident and the boys were having such a nice time fishing. I am so truly sorry for your loss. I can't even begin to imagine what you have experienced, but Greg was out in nature doing something he loved. Our sincere condolences. Linda and Paul Gordon
