Gregory Lee “Greg” Greenfield of Oregon, age 72, passed away Wednesday, December 3, 2025. He was born June 15,1953 in Caro, the son of Fred and Gloria (Achenbach) Greenfield.
Greg graduated from Caro High School with the Class of 1971. Greg earned a degree from Delta College and left for Government Camp, Oregon in 1974. This move to “the mountain” (Mt. Hood) allowed Greg to pursue multiple occupations including the local ski resorts, logging, carpentry, and the building of rustic furniture and home décor. He returned to Caro occasionally in the late 70’s during the holidays to assist at Fred’s Men’s Shop.
Greg became a big part of the local Oregon community with his Government Camp Forest Products business. He produced many of the rustic indoor and outdoor tables in use today by area businesses. He also participated in the building of facilities at Ski Bowl and the day lodge at Timberline. Greg also created a snowboard accessory handle that he used personally and patented.
Greg is survived by his brothers Chris and Scott. Greg was preceded in death by his parents Fred and Gloria Greenfield.
A memorial gathering and celebration of life was held at Charlie’s Mountain View on Sunday, December 14, 2025. It was attended by his brothers and niece, Shelby. The two hour schedule was exceeded by several hours as many local residents shared their stories of Greg’s help with the needs of the local community. A future burial will take place in the Government Camp area with family and friends.
