Greg - I babysat you and your sister when you were little and it saddened me to hear the news. You were too young and seemed to have accomplished many things. RIP - Jessica Bonin (Morrow)

Greg, you were the biggest role mode I ever had. I was completely crushed back in 2015 when I got the news. It was surreal and I couldn't process it. You motivated me to achieve things I never thought I could and for that I'll never be able to thank you enough. You had such a passion... For life, for people, and for your own goals. You made me want to be so much more. You were genuine. You were a true role model because you not only strived to inspire others and build us all up but you always...

I wish I saw you once. RIP Greg Plitt. Until today I think about you and who you helped me become. I wish to continue hold on to the principles you taught and continue to fail and grow. Behind fear is the person I've always wanted to become.

RIP Greg, we may have never met but I feel like I was in mentor ship through your videos on YouTube, overweight, depression, everything faltering. Yet your video sparked that thing in me when everything was collapsing to find the strength to keep getting up one more time. Honestly hearing the day you passed away devastated me, but after hitting a low point I know you would say carry that tordh forward and get up one more time.
I hope you realize you truly impacted me , lost 100+...
