Residing most of his adult life in Southern California, Greg retired from the Motion Picture Industry where he worked for 25 years as a Transportation Captain. He was a proud member of the Teamsters Local 399. Over the years, he worked on countless TV shows and movies, he drove everything from motorcycles to 18 wheelers, and he worked all over the country. In his spare time, he loved woodworking and furniture refinishing, he was an avid fisherman and boater, he was a huge NASCAR fan, and he loved a good party with his family and friends. For the past 20 years, Greg and Mary Pat resided in Kettle Falls, WA.
Greg is survived by his wife Mary Pat, two daughters and sons-in-law: Bridget & Pat Sullivan and Carol “Charlie” & Victor Cisneros, six grandchildren: Gregory, Jacob, & Caitlin Sullivan and Lester, Cindy, and Alberto Cisneros, and six great-grandchildren: Amelia, Carter, Harper Sullivan, and Abigail, Brevin, and Austin Cisneros. Other survivors are his sister, Rita (Greg) Isner, brother Marty (Lori) Gilson, and Teresa (James) Crowe and many nephews and nieces. Also survived by beloved family friend, Stephanie (Rick) Lyznick, who is known as a daughter. He is preceded in death by his parents and his older brother, Maxie Dean.
A private interment will be held at the Washington State Veteran’s Cemetery in Medical Lake, WA. The family prefers memorials in the form of donations to Hospice of Spokane, PO Box 2215, Spokane, WA 99210.
