Not sure what to say?

Dear Anne,
I have never met you but knew Greg when we were both at UCSB. I have fond memories of flying with him in his plane, and I shared those stories and photos with my children. My son is now pursuing his private pilot's license. Greg also made beautiful jewelry, and created a lovely silver and mother-of-pearl cross for my mother, a cherished treasure. Memories of him popped into my head this morning, and after searching online, I found this. I am sorry for your loss. He was a...

Dear Ame,

It has been such a pleasure having you and Greg as neighbors. Greg was always so kind, helpful, and knowledgeable about any mechanical issue we ever mentioned, as well as always ready to lend a hand. His generosity of time and energy was truly unique. His attention to detail and fine craftsmanship were so evident in his careful and committed approach to projects. We already miss the comforting weekend sounds of his table saws and power tools!

We're here if you...

I only ever worked with Greg once very briefly many years ago when I was new to the computing division. He was one of those mentors who makes you feel like you can do anything! And a very kind man.

Ame,

I am saddened to hear about Greg's passing. As you know I had the opportunity of working with Greg for many years and learned a great deal from Greg during that time. Greg also had a wonderful sense of humor and we shared lots of laughs over the years. I truly miss Greg. I wish you all the best and hope that in the future you are able to spend lots of time with your daughter and the grandchildren.

Ame,

I want to express my condolences, I know how difficult it is when mourning the loss of a loved one.
I consider it a privilege to have had the opportunity to have met Greg. He displayed such passion about his work and his life, and I know I would have learned so much from him. Even though our time together was brief, Greg considered me a friend, and I will miss my friend.

May he rest in peace.

Im terribly sorry for your loss. Greg was a good man. I didnt know him for the longest time and was intimidated by him, for no good reason. That all changed one day at our summer picnic. I walked past him and said "Hi Jeff". I felt so bad for getting his name wrong that I sent an apology to him as soon as I could. In his classic way he responded and said "Thats ok, Alice". Well, that is not my name but his humor relaxed the situation and from that day on I called him Jeff and he called...

Ame, my sister, you are very special to me and I want you to know how honored I was to have a friend and brother-in law the likes of Greg. He gave me some very helpful suggestions and aid when dealing with Mother, and his support was constant and sincere. I will miss his soft, kind voice and his willingness to be of help in so many ways. Please know that my heart is with you now and always.
Your loving sister, Lori English

I'm deeply saddened to hear of Greg's death and extend my condolences to the family. I worked with Greg at various times at LANL and always found him to be the consummate professional. He truly cared about his work and those he worked with. He will be missed by many.
