Greg and I were very good friends and football team mates in highschool. I just found out that he passed away. He stood up with me at my wedding, was at my wife's, and both my parents funerals. I have shed a tear and also smile whenever I think of him. The world has lost another great person and we are lesser for that.

Greg was more than a cousin to me, he was a hero of mine. He spent a lifetime busting the bad guys. I remember people's faces lighting up when I told them I was related to Greg as he was so well liked and respected. My deepest condolences to Sharon. Ryan, and Andrew. You were blessed to have him as a husband and father.

Love, David & Nicole Gregory

i am so sad and sorry for you and your families loss. Greg was a very dear friend many, many years ago. Greg was a roommate to my first husband in the early 70s and was also in our wedding. He quickly became one of the family. Then life went in different directions for all of us and we lost touch. He certainly lived life at its fullest! I think I am going to dig out old pictures for some memories. Bless you
