My mother Maggi Greco was Buddy's third wife, whom he met and married in Toronto. Soon after, together they conceived my baby sister, Anastasia Greco. Buddy then moved us all to Encino, California. I use to really enjoy going to his live shows and still enjoy his music. Buddy's music will continue to live on. May he rest in peace.

I spent a lot of time with Buddy in the 70´s. At his Sunset tower apt with Dani... and in many clubs and recording session. Always positive and always fun.

Buddy Greco visited our creative studio in the Queens. NY area. There is a group of us, 24, which included Buddy and our extended friends under various showbiz and creative arts characterizations. Buddy underestimated his own talent even we were all impressed when we had seen his films and onstage performances. Buddy said showbiz would make him older to get him out of the business sooner in 5 to 6 years and he was going along with it. Ihe was in his teens when he got in and was in his 20's...

When I met Buddy and his lovely wife, it was at the Follies Theater in downtown Palm Springs (the Rat Pack Area). They were so gracious to meet with their fans and sign autographs. His restaurant & entertainment was also a great place to go. Later, I was privileged to work with his son, Buddy Jr. What a talent he is! I sent out my sympathy and friendship to the entire family, He will be missed but always a fabric or the "Making of Palm Springs". Sincerely wishes, Janice Gough, Pres. of Art...

Buddy Greco and I were in the orchestra at South Philadelphia high school for boys way back in 1942, 43, 44. What a great guy! what a great entertainer! what a super person & fun to be around. Jay Speck, our orchestra leader would kid with him but I think he loved him sincerely. Buddy was our piano player in the orchestra. God bless you, Buddy. You were a friend!
