Gregory Plunkett Obituary
Age 55, died in Corona del Mar on October 10, 2006, from a stroke. Greg was born in Auburn, CA on April 18, 1951 the middle child of Robert and Nina Plunkett of Carmichael. He joined the navy after graduation from Placer High and was a Vietnam Veteran. Greg was very instrumental in developing the initial health foods program for Raley's and later Safeway's management team during the 1980's. During most of the past two decades Greg developed companies to include bringing Mrs. Fields cookies to the frozen foods market, in addition to securing major specialty food contracts from several large U.S. manufactures for sales to our military overseas. His two children, Daniel Beau Adamson, 32, of Salt Lake City, and Lucrecia Hale, 30, of Provo, Utah, survive him. He has two sisters, Judy Brzyscz of Rockin, and Janice Lawson of Newport Coast.

Greg,
We knew each other since before either of us started shaving. We shared several of the same girl friends in Jr. High School. You will always be the Rick Nelson and Andy Gibb of my memories. You cast a larger-than-life shadow. I only remember the good and am sad knowing you won't physically be there for our 40th high school reunion. Rest calm, my friend, you will always be with us in spirit.

Dear Nina & Beau, Just got your message and are extremely saddened by the news. Sam and I are so sorry about your loss, we can't even imagine how you must be feeling at this time. Will call you when we get home, after the 25th. You are in our prayers.

Uncle Greg--
Your presense was that of a charismatic and caring individual that was always extremely generous and caring to those around you. I remember you and I at the Saint Francis in San Francisco when I was 15 years old and I shared a first sip of Jaegermeister with you. Being with you was a lot of fun and you always made people feel special and loved. Thank you. I will miss you forever. I love you.
