I am so late. I knew Gregg in the late 90´s and worked with him for a couple of years. I´m shocked and stunned as I googled to see what he was up to. Know that Gregg was a wonderful, unique individual and I was fond of him. RIP Gregg

Gregg: I miss you so much!! The closer that day comes the harder it gets to wake up everyday.. I still havent grown my own back bone, some weird part of me still hopes you'll walk thru the door and come home 2 me. I am trying tho, trying to be me; the strong beautiful person you always told me I was. I know your in a better place and the maker is taking good care of you, because when u were here (physically) you took good care of everyone else.. Everytime I look up @ the sky it reminds me of your gorgeous blue eyes and the sparkle they had everytime you looked @ me. My heart still beats 4 yu baby..it always will! I love you, <3 always- your bb grl.

Laz,

I can't believe you are gone. We hadn't talked in a while, but I think about you and your "philosophies" all the time. Just the other day I walked by a handicap line in a parking lot and thought "don't walk on the line" and relaized that came from you. (not sure why but it stuck with me)

I guess when I think about your life and your adventures, you probably lived 10 lifetimes in your short time with us. You lived such a full life and maybe it makes sense that you now get to be with your mom. You were my first love and you will always be in my heart.

To Gregg's Family-- I am so sorry for your loss. Gregg was so special, and truly touched every person he met. I will never forget him and the way you all welcomed me into your family.

I am now 18 years old, and as long as I could remember Uncle Laz was always there for me. It hurts me to know that my favorite uncle could not be there to see me turn 18. He always gave me the best advice in life, and always meant it straight from the deepest parts of his big heart. He wasn't really family by blood, but in my eyes blood wouldn't make us any closer. The day I found out what happened, I cried my eyes out. There were so many moments in my life I then found out, he would not be able to experience physically, but I knew he would always be there for me mentally & spiritually. To this day, I cannot figure out why the people in my life pass on the way that they do. I have lost many of my friends & family within the past 2 years & every time it gets a little more difficult. I've learned that no matter what happens, life keeps moving on. I will always love you, Uncle Laz. I will always miss you. And I thank you for the life lessons you have taught me. Especially that I need to always be positive, well-willed, & strong minded. (And that I should also never any man get in the way of my dreams!) Believe me, your memories were some of the very best for me. Thank you so much.

I have pondered for days & weeks and not a day goes by that I have not thought of you G! Our paths crossed for a reason and our sepration, again for a reason. However, you touched many hearts, including mine and you can't help to ask why? You'll be missed and cherished as a person that many wish to be. You're in our thoughts and our hearts! To your wonderful family, my thoughts and prayers are with them to get through this difficult time. May your next journey in life be a wonderful experience, the one we remembered when we had you here- the BEST!!!! Love, D

Hey Gregg, I remember the night you past,I woke up out of a sound sleep to find an emergency text on my phone.You had left a text on my phone earlier that night saying "Thank You for praying for my Soul. I alway's did! We had alot of special talks together. I remember when we were at dinner and you said to Big Neil, That Frenchy; He's got the truth! Love You Alway's. God Bless You in Jesus Name.

Buffy, Chelsea, Zach, Grandma, Harvey, and Jeff my deepest condolences. I'm so sorry… Gregg was the BEST and very loved by many! I just found out and my heart dropped! I miss him so much!

Gregg you meant the world to me and Lilly! Your smile brightens the room, your laugh was addictive and you told me your bald head “exudes confidences.” You’re one of a kind and irreplaceable!!! Tough as nail but a heart of GOLD!

I loved you from the minute we met; you came over with Jackie and Johnny before our 1st date because I was sick to bring me soup and medicine. After the day we met, we never shared a day apart. While we were together we shared the best times of my life. I met your closest friends and family and you met my family which adored and welcomed you as a part of our family.

Gregg, you made the person I am today, thank you! I love you! You will always be in my heart and never forgotten.

Love you always,
Jennifer & Lilly Ryan

G, G-Unit, G-Train.

The man was short, but stood larger than life.

He was unlike anyone I had ever encountered in my life, both in the way he lived, and worked. He took a bunch of kids with no direction, and imbued in us a sense of the world we might not otherwise have gotten.

To the Lazarus family I say this, Gregg has unequivocally impacted not just mine, but the lives of every soul he has encountered. Please know that, and always remember it.

G. The man, the myth, the legend. Thank you Gregg, for everything.

You will be missed Gregg and I for sure will never forget you.

I read all of the things that people are saying about you and I cry for all of us for the person who will no longer be able to look at us with those sparkling eyes and those oh so white teeth! To me, you are my sweet baby brother - my brother who always liked to be the one to make me laugh, even when i was feeling terrible. My baby brother, who although he had a hard time talking to me from the day mom died until the day he died because as he always said "it's NUTS Buff, you are so much like mum that I sometimes can't talk to you" - he still never stopped finding ways to let me know he loved me. That was Gregg - even when it hurt, he found ways to make people know how he felt about them. I will miss your crazy ways, and funny theories on life - I will miss hearing about your nutty life adventures and I will even miss hearing your cries for help when life was just getting too crazy for you. I pray that you rest in peace, baby brother - I will miss you always and hope that you take care of the piece of my heart you have taken with you.
Rest your head on mom's shoulder - you waited a long time to be able to do that.

Dear Lazarus Family,

I would like to express my deep and heartfelt sympathy over your loss. What a good and kindhearted man he was. I know Gregg was loved by many. I have such good memories of him! I especially remember that he was the first person at the hospital to help Neil & I welcome his goddaughter Belle into the world. I’ve have never known anyone quite like Gregg. I feel truly lucky to have had him in my life.

With deepest sympathy,

G

You were my father figure, leader, mentor and friend. You inspired me to be a better person and to always overachieve. I always knew that I could rely on you and I learned so much from your actions and how you always kept us in line. You taught me loyalty, dedication, and work ethic just to name a few and I feel honored to have had such a great leader in my life. I wish I could have told you how much you meant to me in person but I know that your looking down on us today and I will take the lessons that you taught me to live my life and make you proud. I will never forget you, Rest in peace, brother.

My memeories of LAZ DOG and his Crew at JWU are unforgettable. Greg knew how to have fun, always looked out for his friends, and made sure they everyone with him was taken care of.
He always had a bigger than life presence, and a "I can do anything attitude".
Laz Dog...you'll be missed, but not forgotten! Peace

Jeff, Buffy & Harvey,

It with a very heavy heart I am writing this; my condolences to the entire Lazarus family. Although I didn’t see much of Gregg as an adult, it is so clear, after reading many of the notes others have left, that Gregg was a wonderful, kind, compassionate man and a true friend. He will surly be missed by many. Unfortunately I was unable to make it to dads in Boston yesterday; however, my heart was, is and always will be with you. I wish only the very best for all of you and know that together you will get through this difficult time.

I am carrying you with Buffy and Dad to lay you with Mom. Gregg, you were tortured for so long and in my heart I know that is where you need to be.

You will forever remain in our hearts and souls. I cry for your pain and know that you are now in a better place. I find salvation in knowing you have finally found a way to have peace in your soul.

Your piercing blue eyes, huge smile, kindness, strength of character, and sensitivity will live on in all who had the privilege being in your presence.

I will carry you in my heart and soul forever and you will guide me through life's journey. I hear your laugh, see that gleam in your eyes and feel your hugs every moment. I was the luckiest man of the planet to have a lifetime with you as my brother. Give Mom a kiss for me.

I love you.

Gregg'

I only 'met' you in a series of phone conversations some years ago. Even at that younger age, I was impressed with your sensitivity and caring for others, and your drive to help others to find themselves and succeed in life.

May your Spirit be at peace and may your memory be forever held in the hearts of those you touched who loved you dearly.

My Soul mate, Lover, and Best friend. I miss you and love you Very very much, I wake up everyday hoping this is just an awful dream. Baby you were and are an amazing person and after reading all the wonderful things everyone has said, I see that you are more amazing then I could have ever imagined. I am the luckiest girl ever to have won your heart.
Baby my hearts bleeding for u, and every day i walk around feeling so empty inside wondering how I'm suppose to continue life, when u were my whole life. Gregg your love was so pure, Kind, Loyal, and most of all the -realist- thing I've ever felt.
When we looked into each others eyes and said "I love you" for the first time I knew that meant forever.
R.I.P My Precious baby. I know your in a better place watching over all of the ones who loved and adored you,and while I sit here and wait for the day i get to see you in heaven..My heart will be beating only for you.
Gregg+Ginnette
Together Forever, Love always
