My sincere condolences to Mary and the family. I went to grade school and high school with Gregg. He could recite every teacher at Presentation from grades 1 to 8 with his amazing sense of humor and we'd laugh. He adored Mary and his daughters and the last time we spoke he had just had his grandson and was so very proud and happy. Definitely one in a million with a seriously entertaining personality. Gregg lived his life to the max and enjoyed every moment. Sorry I missed the service as I just found out at our class reunion last night. Peace and Love Mary. May he rest in peace.

So sorry to hear that Greg passed. I knew him thru the Model A Ford club. He always had a smile on his face and a friendly Hello How you doing Bruce. He was fun to be around, just a great guy. Sorry I missed the services, didn't know he passed until after. Our condolences to his family. He will be missed.

I just received a letter regaarding the sad news of Gregs passing. I never personally met Greg but I know he was very caring. He has been my insurance agent since I started driving- I'm now in my 50's. He was also my kids and my Moms agent. We had many phone conversations - Greg always asking about my family and listening to my troubles, giving advice and talking about life. So sad... my thoughts are with you!

I'm so sorry to hear of Gregs passing. He was a great guy. I'll miss his smiling face at all the car shows. He was a good friend growing up, always had my back, called me "little Timmy" since I was About five years old. My condolences to his family. God Speed Greg.

I know this is probably inappropriate, but I knew a Greg Tschida that graduated in 1964 from Monroe High School in St. Paul in 1964. I wonder if this is my classmate. Could anyone help me verify if this is or is not the same Greg? Thank you.

January 30, 2018

Sincere condolences to Mary, and all Gregg's loved ones. For over twenty years Gregg and I worked as Insurance Agents in the Dennison District. He was always wonderful as a co-worker and, friend, It was so sad to learn of his passing. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Sincere Sympathy, Betty Hakanson , Inver Grove Hts, MN

I am so sorry to hear of Gregs passing. We worked together at Southview Chev many years ago. Every time I was at a car show or swap meet I would hear "BROWNSKI" and know immediately that Greg was there. He was a great friend and I will miss him. Rest in peace my friend.

Mary, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. We spent many good times with SCVCA and I will cherish the memories.

January 26, 2018

So many memories of Gregg, Mary and the girls back in the 80's with the Corvette Club; many parades, picnics, Fall Color Runs to LaCrosse, 4th of July in Balsam Lake, Osceola Parades & pot luck in the park. Probably the most memorable one was when he executed his infamous burnout donut in the parking lot at Barker's Island and it took quite a while for the smoke to clear but he left a perfect circle. He was a good friend and will be missed!

Dear Mary, Jennifer, Kristi and Nicole,

Gregg was taken too soon. I am so sorry for your loss. The pictures you posted reflect cherished memories of happy times. I will always remember his great humor, his larger than life personality and all the love that surrounded him by his immediate and extended family.

Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. Wishing you peace and comfort at this sad time. Elaine and Bob Rohloff

So long my old friend. We had a good run over the years, around 55 of them. A lot of good times, adventures, and laughs. The memories are overflowing these past few days. Heart felt condolences to Mary and family.
