Not sure what to say?

Julie, so very sorry to hear of Gregg's passing. We both thought highly of Gregg and you and our many good times spent together in Albuquerque and Virginia. Love you, Ann and Tod Allan

I did not know Gregory but he was a 4th cousin (1x removed). I really sympathize with his immediate family in their loss. I have known more than 1 other person who lost a loved one to ALS. The suffering from ALS can be very extreme. I hope a cure is found soon.

Gregory's great grandfather, Michael Finn was a 2nd cousin of my grrandmother, Ellen Nolan (born Finn).

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

Greg made the world a better place.

Gregg was a great colleague. We did business together, we laughed together, and we made fun of most of Washington DC together. Boy, do I miss you my friend !!

Gregg was a law client and then a friend. He was very talented, yet down to earth. He was humble. He had a wonderful sense of humor. He was able to separate the important from the unimportant. Gregg cared about people from all backgrounds and walks of life. We all miss him.

It was a true pleasure meeting and working with Gregg even in his time of illness he was thoughtful and loving. It was a joy helping him to adapt as he needed to both physically and emotionally.

Gregg had a way of making you feel special, just from the way he greeted you or started a conversation. I always felt taller after talking to him, a bit more confident.

I owe a lot of my growth to his mentorship - he asked tough questions and held me to a high standard, not unlike that to which he held himself. I'm grateful for his guidance.

I miss his laugh. I'm so glad I had the chance to know him.

Gregg was a loyal friend to my husband Jay and myself. He belongs among the stars where we can see him glowing like the bright light he was while he was here on earth.
