Greg and Family,

My deepest sympathy to your on the loss of your dad. I know that you will miss him greatly. I don't think that I ever met him although we spent 5 years together at KFS but knowing you, I know that he was pretty special and did a great job with his family. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this time but know that memories of your dad will sustain you for many years to come.
