He grew up in McCammon, Idaho and graduated from Marsh Valley High School.

Greg was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. He had the opportunity to serve an LDS mission in the Little Rock Arkansas Mission. On February 23, 1985, Greg was married to Catrina Clark and sealed for time and all eternity in the Idaho Falls Temple. It was a match made in heaven.

Greg had a strong testimony of our Savior Jesus Christ and willingly used his talents to serve in many organizations and callings. These included; Primary, Sunday School, Young Men’s, Elder’s Quorum President, Ward Clerk, Bishopric Counselor, and Bishop. He loved the people he served and they loved him.

Before settling in Rigby, Idaho, he and Catrina lived in Green River, Wyoming, while Greg worked as a carpenter and later started his own framing company. Framing was something he really enjoyed and acquired this love from his Grandpa Harris and Uncle Jon. He taught this skill to the many young men that he employed over the years. Later in life he worked for Jefferson School District and ended his career working for Jefferson County as a Building Inspector.

He was a true cowboy who loved horses and roping and gave up the team roping life to follow his kids’ and grandkids’ dreams. He coached J.T and Porter in all of their sports and continued coaching his grandson, Easton. He fiercely loved his grandchildren, Easton Jay, Brooklyn Lee, Maci Jo, Margot Breanne, and Sloane and spending time with each of them.
