He could always have you laughing hard at something.. My prayers go out to his family, and co workers at Freedom... Will forever miss you Greg... I just learned this week... R.I.P. Friend...

I first met Greg during my time working at the YMCA. He was always so friendly when he came in to work out. After I changed job locations, it was a happy accident that I came across him at Freedom one day. I would stop in for gas and a coffee from time to time. It was always nice to talk to Greg. Such a happy guy. I will miss him.

I was saddened to hear of Greg's passing. I have fond memories of visiting his brother, Tom, and how welcoming the entire family was. Friends could stop over at any time.
Greg was a wonderful story teller. I especially enjoyed his stories about when he played halfback for the Mora Mustangs football team.
My sympathy to all his family. May the Lord comfort you at this difficult time.

Our family had the pleasure of having Greg as our neighbor. Greg was the kind of guy who was willing to do anything for anyone. He loved his family dearly and was a devoted father. You could see his enthusiasm for others shine through when he talked with neighbors and engaged in conversations with the children in our neighborhood. He was a very positive and upbeat person who was willing to put the needs of others above his own. It is so sad he went too soon and without warning. He definitely made our small world a better place with his charismatic demeanor. We will remember what a great man he was. We are praying for his family in this time of sorrow.

My wife would often stop in the Freedom Station for a cup of coffee where Greg worked...she didn't know his name, but always marveled at his positive disposition...just last week she remarked to me that "when you are having a bad day, the guy at the freedom station can sure brighten it"...she stopped in just yesterday to learn of his passing...please know he touched lives he hardly knew - and that is a legacy worthy of praise ....hoping this provides a touch of comfort in this difficult time...

I am so sorry for your loss. May Almighty God who "binds up the brokenhearted" and "comforts all who mourn" sustain your family during this challenging time. (Isaiah 61:1,2) With heart felt sympathy to you and your family.
