Tribute
Gregory "Greg" Hurst, aged 68, of Ashland, KY, a cherished family man, and respected community member, passed away on April 16, 2024, in Ashland, KY. Born on August 25, 1955, to Gale Hurst and Emma Mae McAlister Hurst, Greg's life was a testament to the strength and warmth of his loving spirit.
After a fulfilling career at Marathon where he served diligently as an operator, Greg continued to share his expertise and passion for safety as a consultant after his retirement. His work ethic and dedication to his profession were only matched by his commitment to his family and the joy he found in his personal interests.
Greg was reunited again with the love of his life Victoria Hurst, who predeceased him. His loving legacy continues through his devoted daughters, Tina Long and her husband Christian, and Shelly Battista, with her husband Robert Brooks. Greg's brother, Ron Hurst and his wife Helen, also survives him, carrying forward the memories of their shared childhood and the bond of brotherhood.
Blessed with a family that brought him immeasurable joy, Greg was a proud grandfather to Logan Battista and his wife Madison, Mari Long, Kristin Long, and Shannen Long. The addition of his great-grandchild, Leigha Battista, brought a renewed sparkle to his eye and an even wider smile to his face. His nephew, Nick Hurst, and niece, Kali Rae Henry, also held a special place in his heart.
A man of many interests, Greg found pleasure in the simple things. Vacationing at the Outer Banks, exploring the rich culture of Mississippi, or enjoying Destin, FL, he savored every chance to create memories. An avid reader, he could often be found lost in a book, and camping trips were among his most cherished activities, allowing him to connect with nature and his loved ones.
A private family service will be held to honor Greg's life and legacy. The family wishes to extend their heartfelt thanks to the community for their support and companionship throughout Greg's remarkable life. His was a journey well-traveled, and the path he left behind will be followed with love by generations to come.
