I am so sad about Greg Salahi's passing. He was a true friend, computer and gaming partner that I've known since he graduated from Lanier. Two weeks before he was to have his operation he asked me to come visit him cause he said "you never know, I might not come back." He had a strange feeling and now I feel so bad I did not visit with him to watch our favorite HBO program, Game of Thrones. Here's to you Greg, a true king of the video arcade collectors industry. I will miss you.

To Gregs Parents: I send my condolences to you, who I may have briefly met. I am so sorry for your loss.

I am shocked! I just found out all these days later. I have known G since his Altex days & been friends ever since. IRL & on IRC. I went to visit him at his home the week of his operation. His IRC client was active until Friday the 15th I think. I kept thinking he'd pop back in there. I'm so sad. I will miss you greatly my friend.
R.I.P

Sincerely, Dinnis Clements

I got to meet Greg buying some arcade games from him several years ago. He was warm, funny, and friendly.

I am glad I had a chance to meet him.
