Greg Jason Elder

Thank you to all of you who loved Greg and attended his memorial. Thank you for your condolences and memories. All of you give us such comfort in this very difficult time. Greg was a special guy and we will all miss him. God bless each and every one of you. Mike and Viv

Oil, salt and pepper. You don’t always realize all of the memories you have of someone until they start playing like a movie. Not a single one were you missing a smile or a positive attitude no matter how dire the situation. Thank you for teaching me how to enjoy life. Thank you for the best of food, turkey and pigs in the Sand. Big ole pots of king crab legs, the most perfect Steak. I can hear you asking if I can keep up and see that grin when your sitting there waiting for to catch up. Enjoy tearing it up with my dad and cowpa up there. I’m sorry we lost you all to soon but Im glad to know you will be keeping smiles on their faces.

So very sorry to hear this sad news. Praying for peace and strength during this difficult time.

So there’s 2 memories that stand out to me. First one is when Greggles and I are in Glamis. By the way, he basically taught me how to ride a quad in the dunes. Although, I don’t think he would own up to that because I was never a very good rider.

We decide to take an evening ride in Big Blue before sunset. We’re ripping through the dunes when somehow we (Greggles) buries Big Blue up to the axels in sand. We get out and start digging. After 10 minutes, we realize it’s a fruitless attempt. So we grab the cooler, lay down in the sand, and enjoy the sunset, solving the world’s problems, one wobbly pop at a time. As the moon came up, we realized that people were probably looking for us, so we got up and walked a couple miles back to camp, smiling the entire time, because we were having such a great time. It wasn’t a problem, it was an opportunity to enjoy each other’s company. And how ridiculous it was that we buried Big Blue up to the axels, which is not an easy feat.

Second memory, I’m driving with Greggles up to Crown King. We were off the highway onto the dirt road, so we cracked a wobbly pop. Don’t judge. Greggles noticed that I kept looking down to grab my can as I was driving. He said, “Tranimal, let me show you something, my Asian friend. If you push your thumb under the can hole, you don’t have to look at the can. You just feel for the indentation and put your thumb there. Works perfectly, eh”. Till this day, I do that to my cans every time (beer, soda, or otherwise). That’s one of the many ways he impacted my life. I look forward to enjoying a wobbly pop with Greggles on the other side. ❤

It was an honor to grow up with such a charismatic and funny guy. I cherish the memories we had together. Till we meet again Greg. Cheers buddy.

Our beloved friend
Mr. Greggelsworth, king of the camp fire. The calm, patient, thoughtful man who my family is more enriched to have known. A friendship with Greg was to belong in his heart forever and Greg had a gift of sharing himself with all he held dear. He will always be in our heart and cherished, I am better for knowing him, Thank-You Greg Love you!

So many fond memories of Greg. He had such a great smile and personality. I’ll never forget he took me soaring over the Dunes. A true friend, even after the kids and I moved. He is missed, and will be missed forever. Love, Donna, Skylar and Dalton Enyart.

Trish, a funny story . When greg started school he came home and announced he was in love with two girls who had the same face. At six, he hadnt encountered twins yet. Always thought that was so cute. I remember those birthday parties too. Thank you for your condolences and memories. Greg's mom, (and dad too)

My condolences to the family. I had the honour of going to school with Greg at Camilla and Sturgeon Comp. When we were younger we were always invited to his birthday party’s at his home in Alcomdale. Though we lost touch over the years we reconnected on FB. I will always remember Greg with his contagious smile.
