Greg, you taught me more than anyone ever did in the field of hydraulics during our years of work together. I will forever remember the good times we had at work together. Going 4 wheeling in your Blazer, riding my old enduro motorcycle you repaired for me and target shooting in the stripper pits of Warrick County were the best of times we had together.


May God bless you with Eternal Peace.
