To Doug and all Greg's family: I was a customer of Greg’s for many years. I remember Greg as an incredibly nice person with a beautiful smile. He always had a kind word and I will miss him. For Greg's Mom: You have raised wonderful children and should be very proud! I know that God is taking good care of Greg. May he be with you in spirit and may you find comfort in knowing that God will see you though this very difficult time.

Doug and Chrissy, I am saddened to learn that Greg passed away. We went to Lowman Hill and Boswell Jr. High together. I moved after my Sophmore Year at Topeka High and lost touch. I pray that God helps you through your time of grief.

Though I didn't know him personally, I remember Greg and his brother, Doug, because they worked at businesses that we frequented on SW 29th St. I don't know which brother worked which place, but my husband and I would often comment on how much we liked them both because they were so friendly and courteous. They were so genuine and caring with every customer - and we were only buying gas and pop!

I miss seeing both of them, and we are so sorry to hear of Greg's death. Praying the family will know how much God loves them and draws them close in their time of grief.
