Greg was a great man I remember way back before he had children his pet pig running around at the house.
I worked on many a school job with him I was a plumber he was a steel worker and we had a good time also at the Lehigh county courthouse and the airport. Many good memories at Seemsville hotel along with other clubs. He was a good friend and he will be missed. I remember one time we went down to his dad´s house and he offered us soup he said not much meat on them dam herons but this one won´t be eating my fish in the pond anymore. Lots of great memories. You will be missed buddy. Love ya Bob

I remember one of my visits with the bucha family, Greg and all his guy friends were in the little barn/shed and they were making scrapple. Greg dipped his finger in the scrapple and said, try it ! I was like no thanks. lol. I miss those days, and his daughter Danielle loving my mini van always wanting to play in it. He will be missed.
