Gregory Paul Massood, age 54, of Sea Bright and Franklin Lakes passed Thursday, December 15, 2016 after a battle with cancer.
Gregg was born in Paterson and at the age of six the family moved to Franklin Lakes where he was raised. He graduated from Ramapo High School with the Class of 1980. During his high school years he worked in the warehouse of the family trucking company, MGM Transport, in Totowa. After high school he continued working at MGM in Totowa as a manager. He also drove a tractor trailer for several years mostly transporting furniture from North Carolina. Knowing the business for many years Greg went on to open his own transport company GPM Transport that was a nationwide carrier transporting general commodities. In the 1990’s the company managed the logistics for the Sealy Mattress Company in Paterson.
He will be remembered as a hard worker that was well liked and got along with just about everyone. One of his loves was architectural design. His mother told him to pursue a career in architecture but Gregg had diesel fuel in his veins. He loved anything and everything to do with trucks. He did get to try his hand at architectural design when he designed and built his Long Valley home. He drew the plans for the entire home including the custom cabinetry and closets. Those who knew Gregg will attest to the fact that he always had time for you. He could fix just about anything and at a moment’s notice would be by your side to lend a helping hand. He enjoyed the beach, fishing, cooking, entertaining, and boating at the Jersey Shore and during the winter months he liked to go snowmobiling.
Greg was the loving son of Joseph and Virginia (nee Palazzone) Massood of Franklin Lakes; devoted brother of Joseph A. Massood, Esq. of Wayne, Dr. Stephen Massood of Franklin Lakes, and Debra Massood of Mahwah. He leaves two nephews Alec and Kyle Massood of Franklin Lakes; he will be dearly missed by many uncles, aunts, cousins and dear friends. He will be especially missed by his very dear friend Maureen Grogan.
In lieu of flowers memorial donations to Mary Help of Christians Academy, 659 Belmont Ave., North Haledon, NJ 07508 or Saint Josephs Hospital Foundation, 703 Main Street, Paterson, NJ 07503 would be appreciated.
