Praying for God's peace to comfort Greg's family in this time of sadness and for His Mercy upon the soul of my friend. We sat side by side through our senior year in concert choir and had many good laughs while raising our voices in song. To a fellow veteran, thank you for your service our country.

I am so sorry to hear about Greg's passing away. I know he will be sadly missed by family and friends. So many good memories come to mind as I think back when we were growing up in Lorain (and during the time he was at Central State University with my brother, nephew, and niece). Greg always had a really great sense of humor and just seemed to love life. My heartfelt prayers go out to family,friends and others who were fortunate enough to know Greg. May God's peace and comfort be with us all.
