Jacki, Cody and Carly, I was so shocked and hurt to hear of Gregg’s passing. My heart and prayers go out to you all in this hard time. If there is anything that can be done to help, please call on me. I remember all the laughs standing in Randy and Trish’s garage telling lies or making them up if there was not one to be told. I will always remember what a great guy Gregg was. I really do not believe he ever met a stranger. He will be missed.
