Greg, a great outdoorsman, enjoyed hunting and camping. Of quiet nature, he appeared unassuming until you got to know him. He was quite the history buff and amused many with his ability to quote old movies, specifically westerns. Greg was a kind, generous man who put the needs of others first and frequently offered a helping hand. He will be remembered as an exceptionally loving husband, father, and grandfather.

He is survived by his wife of 22 years, Karen Edwards Miller; son and daughter-in-law, Shawn and Amy Edwards; son, Ian Miller; grandchildren, Jaylin and Makaylah Edwards all of Pataskala; sister, Edna (Sonnie) Cox of CA; brothers-in-law, Danny (Kim) Finnerty of Cardington and Ron Finnerty of Columbus; sister-in-law, Linda Finnerty of FL; and mother and father-in-law, Virginia and Kenneth Finnerty of Groveport.
