Today, June 13, 2018, I just found out about Greg's passing, my heart is aching. We worked together at the Open Learning Agency and I volunteered for him for many years lastly being at PWIP. He was an amazing man and helped so many and worked so hard. My thoughts are with Marie and his family. Elizabeth (Liz) Fedigan

Greg will be missed. He volunteered his time to the community by serving on the District of North Vancouver's Advisory Design Panel, providing invaluable insight into accessible design allowing new developments to be more inclusive. Greg was due to start a new term in January and we were looking forward to having his expertise on the Panel again. Our very sincere and heartfelt condolences to his family, and our thanks for sharing Greg with us over the years.

Greg was a regular Client at our business centre. He always took a few minutes to chat, share a couple of stories, and make each of us feel special! He was an extraordinary man who inspired everyone he spent time with. We will miss him dearly and send our heartfelt condolences to his family and loved ones!

I wish to offer my deepest sympathy to Greg's family at this sad time of his passing. I have only known Greg a short time, having worked for him the last year and a half. However short this time was, I could see what an inspiration he was.
