Gregg Arden Breningmeyer

Dear Gregg,
We just got home from meeting Laurie for the weekend. You would be soooo proud of her! She is carrying on as well as anyone could ever expect after having their whole world rocked... Speaking of carrying... We decided she needed to be "packin "so we went to a gun store. We were allittle apprehensive because we knew you did not like guns but as we walked into the store the background music that was playing was a song that I always attach to you... "Walk This Way"by Aerosmith. I could see you come sliding in with a air guitar commanding the moment and making a HUGE scene! You could of been showing us the door but we chose to see it as a sign of approval! So..... for anyone interested, Laurie has 4 dogs, 2 sons and she's packin!!!! Love you and miss you, Marcy

Laurie, Zach & Josh,
Our hearts are broken. Words cannot express our sorrow. We have all lost one very special guy way too soon. We are fortunate to have had Gregg in our lives and we will miss him terribly. He will always be in our thoughts and in our prayers.

Dear Gregg:
I think of you every day. You lived a life that brought great joy to all who knew you. What a legacy you left behind. I have even forgiven you for "being almost late." You may not be with us walking day to day, but in our hearts you will forever remain.

Dear Gregg:
I know you can hear this; the hardest thing is not hearing you. I just have a few things I wanted to catch you up on, first of all, we voted yesterday. Remember the last time we all voted together. We sure could have used your help on this one - too bad we aren't in Chicago where you still could!
Remember those countless, wonderful dinners we all had together. How about our birthday at Pinehurst? That was awesome. You were there for my first hole in one, which of course you reminded me didn't count. Yes, I finally agree that Weber Grills are the best; I just like the gas option. However, I am thinking about getting a traditional charcoal model in your honor.
Looks like our tee time will have to wait until we see each other again. I guess I will have to practice more so you won't take all my money the next time we play! Also, per your instructions, I will never “overlook the value of the often underappreciated manager in the equation.” We will miss you my friend. But instead of being sad, maybe we should just meet at Stuckey's for a nut log.
Laurie, Zack and Josh – thank you for sharing him with us. You know you are in our constant thoughts. Gregg, of course, is on top of our hearts and minds. He wouldn't have it any other way!
All our love,
Peter, Ellen, Jillian and Kaitlin

We will always remember Gregg's smiling face and positive attitude. We will miss……. opening a “Fresh Cold Delicious Squirt, vintage 2011” and his classic “Gregg-isms”; the way he “close talked”; how he hated going to “esoteric” restaurants and eating “esoteric” food; golf followed by lunch; never getting any John Deere golf balls from his endless supply; his grand entrance into the room “Kramer style”; Cowboy vs. Giants rivalry; singing at the top of his lungs in the “finest car ever made”; driving past everyone else's golf ball on the way to his ball; ribs on the charcoal grill; sharing a pizza with sausage and peppers. We have such great memories and are blessed to have had Gregg in our lives. He will always be with us. Our thoughts and prayers are with Laurie, Zac, Josh and the entire family.
