Greg on the Seacrest at Stuart Island BC

I worked with Greg at Haskell Corp, he was one of the good guys, he will be missed.

My fondest memory of Stubby , we were standing out on a dock in a remote channel north of Stuart Island, BC. The gang had just had a great meal with Heinricht and Doris, and Stubby and I decided we were going to identify constellations. Is that Casiopeia? Aquavit was involved.

So sorry for your loss.I had the privilege of working for Greg for several years at Haskells shop. He was a good pipefitter and good boss. He will be missed.

Greg was one of my best friends. I had so many experiences with him over my life. We wouldnt see each other for long periods of time but when we picked up the phone the conversation always started where we left off.

Stubby was one of the good guys in this world, never a discouraging word.

His passing has left a big hole in the hearts of 100's of people who counted him as a good friend and buddy.

I will remember him and miss him the rest of my days.

Bev & family,
Please accept our heartfelt sympathies for your loss.
I was fortunate to spend many summer days on the softball field with Stubby. It was a privilege to play with #3. The Gus-n-Naps team photo is displayed proudly in our home.
It helps serve as a reminder of the wonderful times and strong ties that were formed. Time is so very precious.
The memory of Stubby will always be in our hearts.
Sincerely,
Joe & Julee Pitalo
