Not sure what to say?

It's been very nearly impossible for me to write this, as it has been so hard to convert my thoughts and emotions into mere words. Greg and Ann-Marie were integral elements during a period of tremendous personal growth for me, and they helped to change my perspective about life and training; in fact, they helped make the words practically synonymous. Although I wasn't able to see him as often as I would have liked, Greg's image remains as clear in my mind as if I just left the gym. I can...

May God bless your memories of and your time with Greg. Life is shorter than we would have it sometimes. May you also find strength and peace.

Greg-
I just found out about your passing yesterday and after some reflection I figured the best tribute I could give you would be to go home and lift as hard and as heavy as I could. I have been training harder lately in preparation for a competition this summer with our old friend RG. It was when I called RG to let him know about you that I told him I was going to try to rack squat 700 as my way to honor your memory.

I had the privilege to train with Greg for about two and a half years, and i loved every minute of it. I will never forget him in one of our last sessions imitating the narrator of the Honey Badger videos while i tried to do an ab curl without laughing.

I miss him so much, but i'm glad to have the opportunity to see Ann Marie every week and continue what Greg began.

Mr. Anderson... you were a mentor and an authority on just about everything. You taught me how to instruct.

One of my proudest memories was a quiet conversation you and I had shortly after Mike Mentzer passed away. You had made a reference to your place in the world of HIT (someone had named you as #1 or 2) as one of maybe 10 true authorities on the subject and I asked you where does that put me??? Your response to my question, true or not, still fills me with pride... "somewhere...
