Gregory S. Barnhouse

Life resident, Annual Cruise-In Dance Party Participant, & Massillon Tiger Fan, Greg Barnhouse, age 76, has joined his Heavenly Father alongside his parents: Fred C. and Jane(Hamlin) Barnhouse, Brother Fred L. “Skip”, and Father/Mother-in-laws: Don & Ellie Whitmer.

Upon graduation from WHS, Greg was drafted into the Vietnam War, where he proudly served his country with honor.

After returning home, he opened the AMOCO STATION on the corner of Wales & North. Greg then closed the station and started working at Republic Steel in Massillon as a Millwright, in addition to going into business with his friend Kim, owning and operating Classic Motors, selling mostly muscle cars. Greg was very meticulous when it came to cars.

Greg's fondest memories were drag racing his 79' Malibu at Summit (Norwalk) Raceway Park where he accomplished a "Super Chevy" World National Event.

Greg's absence will be deeply missed by his Wife Debbie, Son Bill, Step-Son Adam, Grandson Jamie, Great Grandson Aiden, Sister In-Law Joy, Brother In-Law Bob, including many remaining relatives and friends.

Per Greg's wishes no services will be held; however, a private burial will take place at a later date in Ohio Western Reserve National Cemetery.

Greg's family would like to send their appreciation to all men and women at the New Philly VA & Veterans Admin. Services.
