Greg was a good man,
A husband to his wife Carol, a father to his son Jeff, a father-in-law to his daughter-in-law Tammy, a grandfather to his grandson Michael and he most of all Greg was a great friend. I knew Greg for a long time 20 plus years. He was a no nonsense kind of person and didn't have time for it. He was always direct and to the point. People would say he was mean and other things and to stay away from him. So people didn't understand Greg, but to know him was to understand him. Hagen was a young man who met Greg after hearing all the stories. He had to ask a question of him one time and of course Greg gave him a line, but Hagen saw right through it all and realized all the stories were false. Greg was just a guy like everybody else.
Greg and I had fun at work starting rumors. They'd make the rounds and would eventually get back to us. When we'd hear about it Greg would just stand there with a smile on his face. He or I would start another and just add fuel to the fire. It would come around and Greg would say sometimes oh that one I started it' and we'd laugh about it. I once called Greg a chicken at work and he got upset with me. He came towards me and started asking why I said that. I took a step back and said you're a chicken again. It dawned on him what I was saying. I wasn't calling him a chicken he was acting like one. I said with that head bob he reminded me of a chicken. He saw the humor in it so I'd walk by clucking like a chicken after that and he'd just laugh. I'd move signs so people couldn't see what he was doing at his machine. He'd look over and laugh because he knew what I was doing. Greg had great trust in me and I had great trust in him. He knew one time when he got called into the office that what they had said was a lie because supposedly I had said something about what he had done. He told me that they I had said he'd been playing games on his phone at work. His flip' phone so he knew it wasn't true. Greg was guy who could see through all the stuff that was going on and the games people would play just to get him riled.
Greg was a military aficionado he knew things about history that were fascinating. He taught me things about my father I didn't know about. I'd brought my father's DD-214 in and Greg explained to me what all the citations were for. The Combat Infantry Badge he said was a high honor because it meant that my father was in actual combat. Then proceeded to tell me what all the other things on this form meant and because of Greg I learn more about my father's military history and for that I'm gratefully thankful.
Finally I'd like to say Greg was a family man, a friend and he liked to have fun, but he also was a teacher. If you had a question he would tell you, but he would also teach you.
I'd like to think Greg was in heaven asking David if he could borrow his Triumph or bum a ride in the disciple's Accord. I think he'd see the humor in that.
I'm going to miss my friend greatly, but I know he's ok.

Greg and I were friends for 30+ yrs. When I joined Vought, I was in a training class of 12. Greg trained me on a drivematic machine. Management had told him we were being trained to take their job but he trained me anyway. It was the beginning of a life long friendship for which I am grateful. We could talk about nothing for hours. He was incredibly honest and kind. His biggest joy was his grandson Michael. He wanted him to grow up in a better world. A world where this country is strong, law enforcement is respected and faith matters. He believed in right and wrong with very little gray. He felt everyone mattered and he knew Michael could do anything if he set his mind to it. He was a jokester and loved teasing just to get a reaction. He'd do anything in the world for his friends and was a co worker one could depend on. The world is a little less bright without Greg in it.

Greg loved to read. Especially books about history -- especially history books about World War I I. He loved our military and our country. He also spent countless hours working on his old red truck. I think before it was over, Greg had replaced or repaired every part of that truck. He was a hard worker, working all the time, whether at work or on a vehicle. He was very friendly with a great sense of humor.

The first time I met Greg I was 19 years old. I wasn't sure about him and he wasn't sure about me at first but what we soon learned was that we both had the same sarcastic sense of humor. He would make jokes ( he had a dry sense of humor) and I would give him the look. He would look at Carol and say Is Tammy giving me the look? She would smile and laugh and say Yes Greg, you better be nice to her! That was how we bonded. Our relationship grew into a friendship that I will never forget. I soon got to be a part of the Keller family and gave Greg and Carol the greatest gift of all, a grandson. Michael was Greg and Carol's 1st grandchild. Greg would tease me and say I hope you know I'm not going to spoil my grandson. Of course if you knew Greg when he was with his grandson Michael, you knew that he was spoiling his grandson any way he could. Of course when Michael didn't get his way with his Paw Paw, Michael would run to his Mimi Carol and say Mimi, go mistreat Paw Paw
Greg and Michael had a very close relationship as Michael got older. Greg couldn't wait to take Michael to the gun range and teach him how to shoot. When Michael got his first gun Greg took him to the gun range for the first time. Michael was so excited. He brought home his targets and you couldn't tell that he never shot a gun before. Greg was so proud of him. That was how they bonded. I know that Michael will never forget those times with his Paw Paw at the gun range. Anybody that knows Greg knows how smart, funny, and intelligent he was. You could talk to him about anything and he would always try to give good advice if you needed it. That's what I will always remember about Greg. He was not only a friend but a father figure to me and my husband Lance.

Greg was an outstanding friend. Devout in his faith, Steadfast in being the best he could each day. Lives like his are a honor to be even a small part of. We look forward to seeing him again one day and continuing for eternity the friendship we shared for far too short a time in this life.

Greg was a very good friend of mine. After he got home from Germany we spent a lot of time hang out and partying. It wasn't long after He got home that He bought a new Camaro. Man we torn up them back roads around Bridgeport. One weekend we all decided to go and see Steppinwolf at the Sportatorium in Dallas. Man what a wild night we had we made it back home about the time the sun was coming up. I didn't see Greg for many years as I got married and move away. I got to see him again in 1980 when I was having a party in Arlington for my roommates birthday. We have been in touch we each other thru facebook , but that is all.
With this said me myself and I need to get busy contacting my old friends cause you never know when we will be gone.
I remember his Mom working at the Dairy Mart and I remember his little sister Gay.
But everything aside Greg was a good man, all the years I have know him He was a gentle man never had a bad work to say about anyone. I wish now that we had been more in touch then we were.
Going to miss you my friend, but hope to see again one day.

Greg was a loving Husband, Father, Grandfather and a Veteran. It was my privilege to have met him only one time, but that's all it takes when you meet Greg; it's as if you have always known him. He loved the Lord and you knew it. We know he is with the Lord and no longer suffering, but his loss will impact so many, as he was such a good man and accomplished so much in his life; he was loved. Rest in Peace, Greg Keller, you will be missed.

I met Greg in Bridgeport a good many years ago. I always counted him as a friend. When I think back to how he was as a kid I only have fond memories. He was always so sweet to me. I am happy that he was my facebook friend . Greg, when I saw you had passed away I was completely shocked . May you rest in peace ..

Greg's last words to our group of prayer warriors: "I'm requesting prayers for my wife and me. I have stage four lung cancer. We need prayers for peace of mind, tranquility, pain relief and for the strength we both need for this. We want the Holy Spirit filling our home. God bless." Carol Keller

I only met Greg through Facebook. His intelligence, insights, humanity and love of God showed through on his post and comments. I shall miss his wit and common sense.

Greg was a great guy, though we met only once, it was an honor. He loved the Lord, and his treasure was his wife, Carol and his family and friends. I pray you will find comfort in the arms of our Lord Jesus Christ, who give us peace that surpasses all understanding. Until we all meet in Heaven, Rest in Peace, Greg Keller.
