Not sure what to say?

Abby, Guinevere, William, and family, I was so sorry to hear of Greg's passing. Jane and I extend our deepest condolences.

So many memories of old times, mostly good (as with all old times, I guess). A loyal friend, a alumnus true to MSU and Briggs, a sharp and engaging wit. He will be missed.

Goodbye friend. Rest In Peace.

Over the decades you and all of us (some of us from Lyman Briggs) have explored and considered a lot of ideas. Some were insightful. Some not. I met Greg when we were first crating the Lyman Briggs College program at Michigan State University.

Condolences Abby and Guinevere.

Greg and I spent a couple summers working for his dad laying asphalt. Those were good times. He was a smart good person. God speed.

I only met Mr. Barr maybe once or twice, back when I roomed with Guinevere in college, but he was very kind, and seemed like a great guy. I think his family and the history of good works and memories that he leaves behind is a testament to what kind of man he was. I am so sorry for your loss.

I am one who benefited greatly from Greg's generous spirit and skill at watsu massage.I will always appreciate Greg's brilliance and humor.

I will always remember Greg's fabled Sunday "at homes" where the food was 5-star,the conversation sparkled and you never knew who might drop in.
Good times.

Greg was a good son-in-law. And I will miss him.

"Goodnight,sweet prince."
