Mrs. Gick - ironic that this email came today as we were just all together and were talking about Kettering and about you and Mr. Gick. Traci saw French Chews and commented that you bought them for her and Andy all the time. Good times. Hope you are doing well.

Mrs. Gick,
I am so sorry to hear about Greg's passing. You both played an important role in my early years at P&G. I still tell everyone that Mr. Gick taught me how to use my side mirrors when driving to P&G with you during that time.
With my deepest sympathies,

Dear Mary,
I worked with Greg at P&G. I always appreciated the good-spirited way in which he performed his work. He was consistently efficient with a twinkle of humor in his manner. A geniune pleasure wth whom to interact. I am so sorry for his early loss. I hope both his golf game and his family life have been joyful since his retirement.

Always enjoyed being around the Gick brothers. Good family. Played pick up basketball with Greg at hoops around the Groesbeck area. He was a good athlete in all sports. Sad to hear that he passed. Sounds like he had a great life. He’s in my thoughts and prayers today.

Greg and I worked together at Procter & Gamble in Cincinnati for 32 years. We lunched together just about every day. After retirement and moving to different places in Florida we did not share that closeness that we had but Greg was always in the back of my mind. Greg will be missed. Mary, we hope you are doing well and we wish you the best in the future.

Uncle Greg was one of a kind! I have so many fond memories and remember always laughing when he was around! He was so kind, loving and of course, the cool uncle. Keeping you close to my heart Aunt Mary, and praying that the many wonderful memories you shared soon replace the sadness in your heart. Love and hugs.
