Obituary

Gregg Wallner, 78, of Lincoln, formerly of Atlanta, passed away at Springfield Memorial Hospital on Monday, June 29, 2026.

Graveside Services for Gregg will be held on Thursday, July 9, 2026, at the Atlanta Cemetery at 12:00 p.m. with Mr. Tony Billingsley officiating.

Gregg Wallner was born May 20, 1948, in Springfield, the son of O. Fred and Lorretta M. Jenkins Wallner. He was united in marriage to Ellen McIntosh on December 14, 1991. She preceded Gregg in death on June 29, 2002.

Gregg is survived by five children: Gina Barnes, Shawna (David) Fleshman, Cheryl (Charles) Horath, Joshua Aikman, and James (Kellie) Aikman; eleven grandchildren; eight great-grandchildren; and two sisters: Trudy (Richard) Theel and Loretta (Gene) Dodd.

He was preceded in death by his parents, wife, one brother, Ronald Wallner, and one sister, Marla Shipp.

Gregg was a 1966 graduate of Girard High School. Over the years he had worked as an OTR Driver, and in construction and maintenance for HomeWay Homes.

He found joy in the simple things in life – tending his garden, reading a good book, and watching classic Westerns. A gifted craftsman, he loved working with leather and woodworking of every kind. He also enjoyed shooting sports and was always open to new hobbies and adventures. His curiosity, skill, and appreciation for traditional pastimes brought happiness to those who knew him.

Memorials may be made to the Sportsman’s Club in Lincoln.
Quiram-Peasley Funeral Home of Atlanta is assisting the family with arrangements.
