Greg will always be remembered for his love of family, life, and NASCAR
An avid "car guy" from the get go, oh, and the lake. He loved Pewaukee Lake.

Having known Greg since I was 15, I will always remember his kind smile' his willingness to please the people he cared about. LNan, I know the days ahead will be rough, but you have such peace now knowing he is finally at peace and he will not suffer again. His love will be ther for you in every sunrise and sunset, for eternity. God Bless you and yours in the days ahead my friend; know how much you are loved friend. Peace.
