Martin (‘Marty’) Douglas Greub, a carpenter and avid athlete who graduated from Palisades High School in 1979, died a year ago on May 13, 2003 as a result of a heart attack. Born in Santa Monica on September 26, 1961, Greub was raised in Pacific Palisades. An avid athlete, he grew up skateboarding and surfing in Palisades and Malibu, and over the years also enjoyed volleyball, running, golfing, mountain biking and skiing. He was a member of the Bel-Air Bay Club. A Mar Vista resident, Greub was a carpenter who worked on many Palisades homes and also played guitar. ‘He was a wonderful, caring, hard-working man who loved life and lived it passionately,’ said his life partner, Lisa Liebman. ‘He had a loving heart, a gentle smile and kind blue eyes.’ In addition to Liebman, he is survived by his parents, Dottie and Walter Greub; sisters Patricia, Bonnie and brother Mitch Greub; and many friends. ‘He brought joy to our lives and his spirit will live on in our hearts forever,’ Liebman said. The marker for Martin Douglas Greub is located at Pierce Brothers Westwood Village Memorial Park.
