My Condolences to all who loved Greg.
I had the opportunity to work with Greg and his team at Fisher Tools when I was the Stanley Proto Representative in Arizona.
I remember having conversations with Greg and always felt he loved what he did.
I would like to tell you I knew him on a personal level, but I was not that fortunate.
I will always remember his drive and passion for business.
I do know everyone who knew Greg personally admired him and respected him dearly.
I am truly sorry for your loss.
Sincerely,
Andrew Ramieri

I've known Greg and his Dad since the mid 70's. I remember him selling handles out at park-n-swap on the weekends. He built Fisher Tools into an awesome business. Glad I was able to build his new offices and whatever else he needed. I wish his family a lot of strength to carry on the Fisher Tools legacy. Me and my brother have lost a good friend and allie.
