Greg B. Rhoads, age 68 of Clarion, passed away on July 7, 2026, after a hard-fought, 2-year battle with lymphoma.
Greg was a man of few words. To honor his preference for brevity, we will keep his list of attributes to the point: he loved his family deeply, served his community fully, and valued and embodied dependability and integrity.
Greg was born on November 15, 1957, in Kane, to Eugene and Dorothy Rhoads who both preceded him in death. His niece, Jessica Drayer, also preceded him in death. He is survived by his wife of 43 years, Teri; two children: Jillian Rhoads (Brian Cecil) and Jace Rhoads (Samantha Speer); two grandchildren: Rhoads Cecil and Rosalind Cecil; 3 brothers: Bruce Rhoads (Rose), Gary Rhoads (Diane), and Brent Rhoads (Gelaine); one brother-in-law, H. John Drayer (Chris), and many nieces and nephews.
The family will have a private burial service. A public celebration of life will be held at a later date.
Arrangements are under the direction of the Rupert Funeral Home and Cremation Service of New Bethlehem.
