Not sure what to say?

Brother...I think of you every day. I can't believe its been 4 years. There is so much I would like to share with you and at least 2-3 times a day want to call you about a song. Miss you!

Not many a day goes by that I don´t think about my missing bro! Don´t think there´s many people like him. I would love to hear his thoughts on the world today!

This is truly heartbreaking. I lost communication with Greg after I left my job at Offutt. He was an amazing man, teacher, and "Dad." Greg´s love of music was our bond, the bond blossomed into a friendship. I miss you Greg and was looking to re-connect after all these years. I can say I am out of the "red", and I am on a wonderful path! Thank you for being you! Ernie Ball strings!

Where did you go my friend? all of a sudden you were gone! You have a strong belief in God, so what a journey you must be on. Our passion in our beliefs and our love of music caused us to hit it off, the one thing we never did-thanks to my shoulders-was play a round of golf. Road trips to Colorado we talked a lot in the car, you really educated me on that thing we call a guitar. If we had met 40 yrs ago my life would not be the same, we would have been life-long buddies in spite of me...

So sorry to hear of Greg´s passing. My thoughts and prayers to the family. He and I went to our high school prom together and he had the coolest little car !!

I met Greg at Offutt. I didn´t know him as well as others., We did golf together a few time and had a few beers together. he left a mark on a lot of life´s he will be missed the world lost a great one!!

Greg, you have always been like my brother. I can't even imagine a world without you in it. I will miss your big hugs and even bigger smile. Rest in peace and I will see you again some day. All of my love.

Greg & Bob.

Greg took four of us up for a flight in a little Piper Cub out of the Millard Airport. Greg may have been the tallest but he was the second heaviest person on board. It was a lovely late afternoon. We powered up and had a smooth slow ascension into the sky. I had flown in small planes before but as I sat in the back seat I could not help but "feel" the plane was running heavy and could see the Orange Balls that are placed upon power lines dead ahead. Greg slowly turned back to us with...
