Pastor Greg Durel

Greg Durel, age 67, of Metairie, Louisiana, got his "promotion" and went home to be with our Lord and Savior on Thursday, February 24, 2022. He was born in New Orleans to the late Irwin Durel and Helen Hock Durel. Greg was pastor to Heritage Bible Church for 33 years. Teaching the word of God and witnessing were his passion. He also produced five radio programs each week on WSHO radio where you can continue to hear him teach in his unique straightforward style. Greg is survived by his wife of 41 years, Cynthia Reynolds Durel; his five children, Christina Carter, Theresa King, Greg Durel ll, Stephanie Posner and Dylan Durel as well as his six grandchildren, Faith and Hope Carter, Vivian and Ella King, Greg Durel lll and Jesse Posner. He is also survived by his lifelong friend and brother at heart, Charley Moran.

His family would like to express their great gratitude to all those who so willingly helped to do whatever was necessary during his stay in the hospital and after. We are forever grateful.
