With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of our beloved brother, Greg Hagen.

 Greg was a joyful, candid spirit who brought laughter to everyone he met. A kind soul who will be deeply missed.

Greg was raised in Los Altos and despite a challenging start, enjoyed a fulfilling childhood thanks to unwavering love and support of family and friends around him.

After leaving our family home, he was so loved and cared for by Willie and Debbie Sanchez of Aptos. We offer endless thanks for caring for him as he flourished into a wonderful young man.

Greg spent the remainder of his life with the loving family of Scott and Juanita Geurin of Watsonville, whose care and everlasting kindness, leaves us with immeasurable gratitude and warmth. They will forever hold a special place in our hearts.

Greg had a passion for any kind of music. He continued to impress everyone with his incredible memory in vivid detail. He was our “family historian” with a special gift of keeping memories alive for all of us.

Greg was preceded in death by our parents, Arthur and Audrey Hagen and he is survived by his siblings, Bill, Pat (Chacona) and Ken and their respective families."
