So sorry to hear of Greg’s passing. Several teammates were talking about him at our recent 40th NDWH reunion. He was missed. Hoping all of you remember his smile and better days.

My condolences to all the Sember family. I remember when I worked as a secretary, in the Ansonia High School Main Office, how very kind both Greg and Donna had always been to me. It was so nice to see a dad like Greg, who was so engaged in his children activities. His pride and joy was always evident in all that they did. May he Rest In Peace and all his family find comfort in knowing that others share their grief.
Deepest sympathy,

My sincere condolences to the Sember family. Greg was a student of mine at Notre Dame and I enjoyed watching him pitch as well. I'll always remember that booming laugh.

My condolences to the Sember family. I went to high school with Greg and played baseball with him for 4 years at NDHS. I have a lot of great memories from our senior season. Greg was a leader, always upbeat and a pleasure to be around. I was very sorry to hear of his passing.
