Greg & I were in band together and other classes @ TJ. He & I chatted after the last class reunion on the phone & he told me he was so happy in retirement with his wife. He raved about his grandchildren and truly wonderful family. I am so shocked and sorry to learn of his passing. As a teenager, Greg was one-of-a-kind in kindness, humor and ability to make everyone feel good around him. I will never forget Greg, and honor his memory.
Please accept my condolences and prayers.
Sincerely,
Linda J. Hurley

As a supplier to the railroad, I was fortunate to share lunch with Greg on several occasions. I always enjoyed his stories on his travels, especially to the middle east, and also the love he shared for his family. I am deeply sadden for your loss having just heard the news last night. Greg was most definitely one of the real good people you enjoy being with. God Bless him and his family

Vickie, Our condolences goes out to you and your family. Greg will be greatly missed but we know that Greg is no longer in pain. He is fully healed and in His presence. I can imagine Greg talking to Jesus as Jesus looks at him and smiles because Greg had that impact on others whether they were a stranger or not.

Jackie & Troy, so sorry for your loss. I had been praying for Greg as soon as his situation became known. Somtimes God see's fit to take someone before we are really ready to let them go. Will continue to pray for your entire family & the strength to make this a Happy Holiday season for you all. Jackie, if you need anything at all, don't hesitate to call.
