Greg Stahler Obituary
Resident of Belmont
Greg Stahler died unexpectedly in his home in Belmont on March 26, 2015. (He was born in Mountain View on June 23, 1972). He will really be missed by his three beautiful young children, Haley 6, Hannah 5, and Tyler 3, and his wife Kathryn. He will also be greatly missed by his loving parents, Cathy Stahler of Cupertino, and John Stahler, of Mountain View, along with his brother David Stahler of San Mateo, and sister Kim Xilliox of San Jose, and their combined four nieces and nephews.
Greg grew up along with his brother and sister in Los Alltos at the now-closed St. Williams grade school. Greg became an excellent athlete, later starring on the track teams at Saint Francis High School, and Mountain View High School, where he graduated in 1990. He then graduated from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo with a double degree in Mechanical Engineering and Biology, and he used these skills while being employed since at several local biotech companies. He owned many biotech-related patents.
Greg cared about people, and a lot of people cared about him. This is a devastating loss for the family. Greg was a beautiful child and a wonderful father and he had many wonderful friends.
A memorial service was held in San Mateo on April 2, 2015.

I am a new reident in Greg's old neighborhood. The older neighbors really loved Greg and miss him very much. It must be a terrible loss for his family, since even neighbors speak of his death with great sorrow. I, too, am very sorry that he is not among us now in 2017. Greg must have been very memorable, kind, and creative. We neighbors are still sharing the good fruit he provided us by deliberately planting a plum tree for all passersby to pluck from and enjoy. I think of Greg's generosity every time I walk past that plum tree!
