Gregory Oliver

I guess memory late is better than never. My parents, siblings and I enjoyed many a day with he and his family when they resided in the Washington, DC area. We fell out of touch when he and the family moved to Atlanta, but the good memories have persisted to this day. Rest in peace.

My first introduction into the studio and audio business was being invited by Greg to go up to WKLS while he did the news, live on the air. WKLS FM was an automated station at that time. We walked in, Greg tore this onion skin paper off of something that looked like a teletype machine, we went into a booth about the size of a phone booth, Greg flipped a toggle switch, the automated music and commercial ad systen stopped, then out came this incredible voice of authority delivering the news. I...

I loved your Orson Wells story...time to give "God's Voice" a rest.

A casting director once screamed, "I want he voice of GOD!!" We looked around at each other. Clearly, God was not available for this particular gig. We gave quietly inquisitive faces. Someone finally said, "Sir. God, God?" the casting director replied, "Yes. GOD! Gregg Oliver, Damnit!!"

"You are now entering the Pearly Gates". G.O. D.

Thanks for the memories, Greg. I enjoyed knowing you and my thoughts and prayers are with Jean and the rest of your family. Enjoy the Kingdom, my friend.

I always looked forward to Greg's visits to Cardiology of Atlanta. It only took one meeting to see that he was a special man. I loved to hear his stories and he kept us all laughing. Patients like Greg are what makes my job worth doing. He will be truly missed. My thoughts and prayers are with Jean and the family.
