Gregory Lee Klaus

We love you still. Aunt Nod

Rest in Peace Gregg. You were a bright spot on Hawthorne. We will miss you.

My uncle Greg was so vibrant and alive. He was always generous with good advice, humor, furniture, and love. He was such a huge inspiration to me, and I will miss him for the rest of my life.

We had the pleasure of doing business with Greg for many years. We would spend a lot of time chatting at the New York Stationery Show. This is such sad news, however we keep the fond memories of Greg in our hearts and were so fortunate to have worked with him. Sadly we never took the time to accept his invitation to Portland. Our thoughts are with his family, friends and especially his close friend and ours, LeAnn.

You had nothing but the best to offer people. As a neighbor, and a person I passed on the street, you had a glow that I will miss. The best to you in the next life my friend.

Greg picked up on the vibe and right away started trying to find something he could bring into the store to take the pressure off me. We had been...

Greg,

You were a shining light in so many ways. Your legacy will live on in many peoples homes and lives. Thank you for the smiles, your warmth, wicked humor, generosity and your dogs (that loved you and none of your customers). Blessings upon you and your family.

Rest in Peace Greg! We love you and miss you and Portland just won't be the same.

My brother Greg was an amazing, witty, and confounding man. He will be missed. Here is a collection of images from his life:
