On Monday December 6, 2021, Gregorio Jose “Grego” Villanueva, beloved son, brother, and friend to many left this Earth one day shy of his 33rd birthday.

Greg was born to Juan “Francisco” F Villanueva & Genoveva “Eva” Villanueva on December 7, 1988. He was the youngest of their 4 children.

Greg attended grades K-12 in Junction graduating in 2007. Greg was an active member of the Junction FFA during high school.

Greg made friends wherever he went and worked, some of his occupations included ranching, contract welder, heavy equipment operator. For the last 5 years Greg was living and working in Midland, Tx. In 2016 his oldest brother started up his own service business in the Natural Gas Industry, and six months later Greg joined him, where he learned the trade and excelled at gas compressor repairs, service, and customer relations.
