Dear Family, I was reflecting today on Greg. It has nothing to do with his football career, but what he taught me as Junior HS student in Amherst Mass. A young student who could not swim. UMass was contacted and a buzz in a small jhs locker room. Greg Landry? I wasnt a sports kid and bam, Greg is introduced to me and another student. Greg will teach you how to swim! He did too! He left a long lasting impression. He will be missed and im sorry to hear of his passing. [email protected]
