Gregory Joseph Resler passed away peacefully, early Saturday Morning, August 24th, 2019, after suffering from the complications of a major stroke. Gregory was born in 1931 and lived a very full life right up until he passed. He began his career as a Milwaukee Firefighter, before moving on to start his own trucking company. His trucking company, Tall Trucking, continued to grow - and at its largest, included seven trucks. Additionally, he worked as a partner in a Granite Quarry in NORTH Phoenix in the early 80's.


His bright smile, crazy sense of humor, kindness and generosity will be greatly missed by all of those whose lives he touched. He was very hardworking and independent, and lived life on his own terms until he passed. His son and daughter will greatly miss him, but will always treasure the many great times that were spent with him.


Gregory was the youngest of four sons. He is survived by two brothers, Ed and Earl Resler. He is also survived by his two children , Michael Resler and Julie Willavage, as well as his two grandsons, Todd and Michael Willavage.
