Donald Grieshop

Donald Grieshop, age 60, loving father, husband and brother, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, May 10, 2016 at Kobacker House Hospice, surrounded in his last days by his loving family. His new address is Heaven, where he'll continue to watch over his loved ones, tend to his garden and flowers, and dance. Of the many hats Don wore throughout his career, his favorite was the fireman's helmet he wore proudly for the Mad River Township Fire Department, where he was also an EMT.

He was born along with his twin sister, the late Donna Wells, on July 30, 1955 to the late Herman and Lucille (Friend) Grieshop. He is survived by his wife, Sally (Morey) Grieshop; son, Jason Grieshop and fiancée, Lauren Ellis; daughter, Jennifer (Josh) Allshouse; grandchildren, Dominic Grieshop, Landan Allshouse, Ethan and Kayleigh Allshouse, and Lorelei Ellis; sister, Cynthia (Dan) Blevins; brother, Thomas Grieshop, and brother-in-law, J.R. Wells; beloved aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews.

The family will hold a private memorial service. In lieu of flowers, please donate to the ALS Association, Central and Southern Ohio Chapter, 1170 Old Henderson Rd., Suite 221, Columbus, OH 43220.
