So very sorry to hear of Greg's passing. A family friend and a childhood friend with younger brother D.D., I can see Greg starring in athletics at KPHS like it was yesterday. He was a true leader that his peers followed and admired. My deepest sympathies to the family from the Owen family here now in Alabama. for Greg and family.
