To Greg's Family & Friends,
My deepest condolences are with you as you grieve.
Please find comfort in reading
Luke 7:11-17.

Our deepest sympathy goes out to the Wrobel family; many times our paths crossed when the boys were young; the good time they had; the miles we traveled between houses and the fun we had with the boys; unforgetable; as my son Mike said "We logged in many hours on the nintendo. We also wanted to start our own rap group, ice pac. We even had a couple of recordings. I remember that very well. Very tragic when something like this happens so sudden to someone so young." Prayers are with you all. Peace be with you.

Aunt Trisha, Uncle Gerry, and Sarah Jane, there are no words that are sufficient right now. I am at a loss that one of us is gone. I vividly remember the day Gregory was born. We were camping up at Brennan's Beach in Grandpa's camper. I was in bed, sleeping in that bed/cot that folded down from the wall, almost to ceiling, and someone (can't remember who) came in and said that Gregory had been born. I was sooo thrilled. Michael, Kathy, and I had our first cousin. He was the first of what I always thought of as "my four babies", with Eddie, Nora and Sarah to follow. I am truly blessed to be a part of this family and we will miss Gregory forever. I LOVE YOU ALL.

Wrobel and I have been inseparable since high school. We went to college together and eventually both moved down to Tampa, FL. Three things that I will cherish about our friendship:
1. No matter how busy he was, if I needed something, he was there for me, without hesitation.
2. Whether in-person or talking on the phone, Greg would always provide an attentive ear.
3. We were always laughing. Even the one time I got mad at him during our long friendship, we still ended up laughing moments later.
It's rare you find all those qualities in any friend. I'm definitely going to miss, in his words, my fellow soldier.

Greg was a great guy to be around always as a friend and co-worker at Welch Allyn. So shocking to hear this tragic news, but I feel so grateful to have known Greg for 3 yrs. His smile was contagious and his wonderful personality was always a joy to be around. He will truly be missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of his family and friends at this time. Greg I will miss you and our conversations about your fun weekends with friends(Steve D'Amico).RIP Greg With deep sympathy,

I cannot begin to express how deeply saddened I am by this news. Greg was one of my closest friends growing up. We drove to school together every day, played soccer and golf, went on countless trips, and just hung out. Although Greg and I saw each other infrequently after college, those times when we did get together, it seemed like nothing had changed. Greg was still a kind-hearted and fun-filled individual. To Mr. and Mrs. Wrobel, Sarah, and the rest of Greg's family, you will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Greg helped me out several times dealing with IT issues at Welch Allyn. It was clear that he was very smart and a dedicated professional. He was always light-hearted in going about the duties of an often thankless job. I'm very sorry to hear of his passing and my condolences go to his family and friends for such an untimely loss.
January 6, 2012
I am shocked and deeply saddened to hear this tragic news. I met Greg a little over 3 years ago and he always went out of his way to help. He was also a friend and will truly be missed. I'm thankful just for the opportunity to know him in the time that I did. My thoughts and prayers are with Greg and his family.

My heartfelt condolences to the Wrobel Family for your loss. I frequently had to interact with him at Welch Allyn as part of our work, and I found him to be smart, system savvy, friendly, personable, thorough and a total pleasure to work with. He will be sorely missed, both personally and professionally. Anyone who was lucky enough to work or interact with him mourn his loss.

Like many, I considered Greg my best friend growing up. Greg and I did everything together from going to religion classes, to trading baseball cards, playing Sega Genesis, shooting pool, golfing, and taking trips to the Casino. We shared so many great times together and I will never forget him. He was intelligent, funny, and was the most generous person I've ever met. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Thank you for being my friend.

I went to college with Greg. We lived on the same floor in Seton. We hung out quite a bit his first year. I remember he always used to share his Doritos from home with us. In a small way, just shows his generosity. Always was a happy guy. I'm shocked and he will be in my prayers as well as the family.

Rest in peace my friend.

What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch, we may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say goodbye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you lived. And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget.
Your flame will keep on burning

Greg in no other words, was simply awesome. I only knew Greg for a few years working with him at IBM... he was not only the best Systems Administrator on my team, he was a very good friend. He was always there to help me and the other team members, someone to confide in whenever a voice of reason was needed, and was basically my right-hand man in leading the Wolters Kluwer account (one of the other accounts he worked on). I will miss him very much... he was truly the best .. God Bless you lad...
To the Wrobel family and friends, I am so sorry for your loss... I can not imagine the sorrow you are going through... Greg will be in my prayers
Sincerely,
Rick Cowell

Greg was my best friend growing up. We spent so much time together that people thought we were brothers. We lost touch after college like so many people do but I thought about him often. He had a huge affect on my life. He got involved me in some sports and helped shape my taste music, movies and even stand-up comedy. I'm so grateful for having known him and I'm so sorry that this happened.

Greg also worked with those of us at Honeywell (formerly Hand Held Products) in Skaneateles. Greg was always a welcome sight to arrive when we had issues, and he never complained even when it was at midnight on cold winter nights. He would always arrive with a smile on his face. He was a really nice guy and we are all so saddened by your loss. This was a big shock to us as well. He will be missed by all.
