I just saw Greg two weeks ago and we talked about the old early shuttle days at PRC. When working with him I had to run around with an ash tray to catch the ashes from his cigerette, it amazed me how long they would get without him flickering them off! We had a good laugh and so glad I got to see him again. My deepest sympathy to his family. He was great to work with over these last 33 years.
