I've been feeling very stressed about replacing the roof on my garage today. I found Greg's video on installing "roll roofing" from 5 years ago and watched it about 5x. I've watched a ton of videos over the past few days and Its the only video that calmed my nerves and made me feel like I can do this. I scrolled through his page after watching his video again and realized he passed away in May and now I'm crying. If his family or friends check on this account, I want them to know that Greg made my day and seemed like such a kind person.
To those who didn't know. Neither I have known. This kind guy had passed away in may... Rest In Peace Greg Zanis. I never found a channel like this. With such a greatful and kindhearted man. I Will miss Him.. Hope you all will too.
I didn't have the heart to turn the the sound on but I am guessing he passed. I saw the story about the cars lining up to drive by and thank him some time ago. Years back, I ran across his page and I am not sure if it was scrapping... it may have been dumpster diving. Well, wait, there was that video when he built the attachment to that one house. Many people were critical of the work, but cant recall what I wrote. So, for some time with the dumpsters, selling clothes in the driveway, make-shift repairs etc., I didn't take him seriously and thought he was a bit goofy, to be blunt. Time passed and I ran across his videos about the crosses and I was was like... what it this? Did the survivors even want him to make the crosses? Then there was a story on television, I think, and it seemed like something bigger. My admiration increased. There was also the story about his daughter passing and that added more of a human caring element to the man. Finally, when I saw the outpouring of love for him with all the cars driving by to thank him, I completely gained tons of respect for him. I have been wondering if he passed. The fact he is no longer out there makes me sad. The can do attitude about everything and operating at warp speed will be missed. He will be missed by me. Also, never judge a person based on one impression. How a person acts... if it is silly, all over the place, or never stopping, doesn't provide a porthole into the person.
Similar to Crystal, below, I came across Greg's floor sanding video which I found to be truly inspirational (I'm still to use my new belt sander on the floors), only to learn that he had passed away. I will take my time and go through his other videos now. Chris, your Dad was a top, dedicated, peace loving bloke with a Huge Heart, and I honour him. I am sorry for your family's loss. All the very best for the future. Keep the videos coming mate, your Dad would like that I think. All the very best. Greg, from downunder, New Zealand.
This guy was great. Gone too soon. I was sitting around thinking about how much crap most of these videos are nowadays. I started to think about the good videos I've seen and remembered about the dream car. I'm so glad I found the channel again. I know he's gone now but I'm glad his memory will live on what a great guy.
@@BGTech1 i know. He just wanted to make money. I don't know him but he lives in Aurora, which is like 50 minutes away from me, but still great dude. He willfully traveled thousands of miles to help out grieving families. Hopefully his son will continue on the legacy!
hello , i initially searched for info regarding title transfer at the dmv VS. currency exchange, and when your video came up., I immediately noticed indian trail on your way to the DMV. I left you a question in the comments and subscribed . I checked if you had recent videos. and saw this one, I had no idea you are the man that made the crosses for losses., I saw this on the news . would you take me under your wing and teach me some things, I can volunteer to help my name is Lyn

Same I didn’t know he did such good things
Been following this chanel for years. What a big heart this man has.
I just found out he passed away in may
@@ryanravencaller that's sad. I hope someone made a big cross like he did. RIP Greg, you deserve it.
The good hearted and the best youtuber. May his soul rest in peace 🙏🏻😓❤️
What was his cause of death?
@@BGTech1 Cancer

Greg changed my life. I wish I was in a world full of Greg's right now. His positive outlook and unstoppable drive was contagious and uplifting.
He’s dead
Someone so especial can never been forgotten, may his soul rest in peace.
R.I.P Greg
Rip Greg zanis 💙💙💙 1950-2020 you will be missed Greg 😞😞😞
They should make a wooden cross for Greg. Rest In Piece Old Friend!
A vary big one too
@@BGTech1 yea, make it the size of all of the crosses he made combined. He was a great dude
@@arthurmorgan7642 he was a great man, although his scrapping acts where extremely dangerous and bad for the environment.
@@BGTech1 i know. He just wanted to make money. I don't know him but he lives in Aurora, which is like 50 minutes away from me, but still great dude. He willfully traveled thousands of miles to help out grieving families. Hopefully his son will continue on the legacy!
@@arthurmorgan7642 I hope so too. People need to come together now more than ever, and the best thing to do that are simple yet meaningful acts.
Rest in peace
Yet I only saw 1 vid
But that was all I needed
To know how great he was.
Sorry about Greg. He was fun to watch.. Hope you continue the scraping. You both found a lot of cool stuff. Anybody can do it. RIP.
GREG DIED?! 😭 I lost my bro on easter and I just now found out about Greg Zanis, I was wondering why I haven't seen any new videos!!
RIP
That was beautiful. Thank you!
RIP Greg zanis 1950 - 2020
Rest in peace mr Gregory ο Θεος να αναπαύσει την ψυχούλα σου .
If you believe in Santa, why not believe the news also, they are both fantastic creations of the human imagination.
Pure propaganda and lies to bring national firearms confiscation laws; keep drinking the Cool-Aid kids, just know that it's poisoned.
Condolences, He will be missed.

Sadly he’s not with us anymore
Will you do scrapping video?
ΑΙΏΝΙΑ ΜΝΉΜΗΝ!!!
(Greek, like Greg Zanis🕆)
did greg die or something
Yea man he died recently of bladder cancer. Rest in peace greg!
@@arthurmorgan7642 how did he die so quickly? He uploaded this video then died right after
@@otraves4236 I would assume his family
@@bg147 it seemed like he was alive and well beginning of the year. Sucks
@@arthurmorgan7642 😢😢😭😦
Funny the Crosses he built were the same material Christ was crucified on to save us from our sinfull nature
What else would you expect a wooden cross to be made from?
Wish I knew what he had against me before he passed.
What happened?
