I just learned of Greg passing away, and I am stunned. We shared many hours of conversation regarding life, values and religious beliefs. He was a very good, decent and honest person. He had some trials and tribulations over the past few years, and he was coming back very strong. I am a better person for having known him. I will remember him and think of him often. May God bless him and watch over his loved ones. Until we meet again my friend. R.I.P.

Although I was Greg’s boss, I considered him more of a friend than an employee. He was an outstanding human being and salesman. Greg had a way about him to tell his stories and jokes that made you want to listen to what he was saying and then cry laughing afterward. He has touched many people’s lives and will not be forgotten. May God bless the Smith family during this tough time.

Greg was a true friend he had a way with him to put others first. I feel very blessed to know Greg the passion he had when he told story's he had a captive audience. I only knew Greg for less then a year but the memory I have of him will not fade for he had a great in-pact on my life. Greg had such a great work ethic that he made other employees hard to compete with he was always in the top performers. I am at piece knowing what a great relationship he had with GOD and that he is in Paradise right now.
