Greg was a devoted husband, father, and grandfather. He was infinitely patient, and his kindness was beyond measure. Greg was generous and hardworking. He lived a selfless life and always prioritized his family and grandkids above himself. He was thoughtful and considerate, always taking time to pray diligently for his family at a moment's notice. Greg had a humble spirit that touched everyone he knew. He loved the Lord and never faltered in his faith. Jesus was his rock and filled his life with peace and joy.
He is survived by his loving wife of 47 years, Donna Straus (nee Ritter); three children: Aaron Straus (Carianne), Sara Puckett (Eric) and Rachel Smith (Dillon); seven grandchildren: Gwyneth, Beckett, Reed and Amos Straus, Alec, Remi, and Lily Puckett and Isabel Smith; three siblings: Gary Straus (Debbie), Gayle Loos (Chris) and Glenna Woodyard (Leroy).
