Gregory Dale Bensen

April 15, 1946 - July 23, 2014

Passed away peaceably in Napa, Calif. on July 23, 2014. He lived a happy and comfortable life, most of it with his mother and father. He was born in San Francisco on April 15, 1946 to Violette Moyer Bensen and George Bensen Jr. and lived most of his life in Millbrae. Greg was never one to be shy. He walked all over Millbrae, touching many lives and making friends with all. He would attend the Millbrae Methodist Church by himself, not that he was a religious person, but was fascinated with the services and the Reverend and was treated very well. Greg also had the special musical talent of being able to play the piano by ear. Later on, with his mother and father, he relocated to Grass Valley where it was again his habit to walk about visiting neighbors and making friends. The family also had a home in Sierra City, in an area called Green Acres, where he got to know all of the homeowners by visiting all around the area. Greg is survived by his sister Marilyn Genis of Millbrae and his brother Thomas Bensen of St. Helena. A private family gathering is planned. Donations in his memory may be made to your favorite charity. Greg will be buried with his mother and father in Nevada City, Calif. Please share memories at treadwaywigger.com.
