He was in high school together he was very friendly very nice I hadn't seen him since right after high schoolI hadn't seen him since right after high school until we were about 30 years old maybe 31 I'm not sure but we spoke for hours outside the DMV when we ran into each other about what we had been doing since we had lasted saw one another. In that I realized that he felt the same way I always felt about him we spoke for at least an hour while both having other things to do he told me about his visit with Def Jam I was excited for him I had always loved him since high school and it was so nice to see him doing well I'm going to miss you you were going too early.

I could sit here typing all day and not find the right words to say in this situation...because nothing could express my depth of respect for this man. He brought a positive energy to both me and my coworkers, and was never too busy to talk to a small fry like me. It's hard to understand why such a benevolent human being would be taken away from his family like this.

Rest easy my friend.

Veronica,

Words can not express how sorry I am to know you and your children are experiencing such a huge loss.. I know you are a strong woman and mother and you will hold your head through this tough time. I am thankful to have known Greg for many many years and to know he had a great woman like you to stand by him and to support his dream. Greg was a good man and a great father. You was there for me when my mother passed away and I just want you to know I am here for you for anything. We love you and your children. Love: Zaida, Sandra and the kids... R.I.P Greg

Veronica and Family,

I'm so sorry for your loss. I have known you for a very long time and I have seen you go through tough times, but never would I have imagine you have to endure such a big loss. I know you very well and your a very strong woman and I know it is going to take some time for you to heal, but Be strong and always remember that you are surrounded by many friends and family that love you dearly. Everything that we endure in life in the end will always have it's purpose. I know you have many questions, but only GOD has the answers. We just have to live our lives to the fullest and keep GOD close to our hearts. Greg was such a beautiful person and he will be missed dearly. You, the children and Greg's family are in my thoughts and prayers. I miss you. I know I'm far away, but if you need to talk, please call me.

Veronica,

I'm so so sorry for your loss, for once in my life I'm speechless! You, the kids, and the family are in my heart & prayers. Just know that everyday will get a little bit better, and find the strengh to be the mother your children are gonna need now more than ever. Greg is now your guardian angel, and will always be with you and the kids. It's so crazy how things happen because I remember not to long ago you and I were in the salon picking out our wedding colors, looking at bridal magazines together. We laughed because we both wanted the same color coral as our main color. Life is so unpredictable, we need to love everyone like it's the last time will see them! Veronica I'm here for you and the kids through every step of the way just know that! Keep GOD close to your heart, and he will give you the strengh you need to get by this terrible tragedy. Love ya girl!!

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

Keep your heads up & KNOW that he is watching over ALL of you now BETTER than he could if he was here on Earth! He will FOREVER live on in our hearts,memories, thru his Beautiful wife & children & Especially thru his music! His words & music told a story of his life! He LOVED doing what he did & just knowing that he is up in Heaven singing with the Angels & to God brings me comfort. I love you & i'm gonna miss you dearly! Your Life here on Earth will NEVER be forgotten!! Trust & Believe that!! R.I.P Greg!!

Greg,
What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, we may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you lived. And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget. RIP

To the family,
Although no words can really help to ease the loss you bear, just know that you are very close in every thought and prayer.

He left us quietly,
His thoughts unknown,
But left us a memory,
We are proud to own;
So treasure him Lord,
In Your garden of rest,
For when on earth,
He was one of the best.

Our hearts go out to Greg's family.

Greg,
Your passing is unbelievably devastating and painful. You were and always will be considered one of the most genuine, real, and passionate men I came across in my lifetime. Your smile was the brightest and your outlook on life was amazing. Everytime I sit and think about you passing it brings tears to my eyes and a heavy saddness in my heart. Going to the gym will be a struggle because I was so use to seeing you there bouncing around from person to person to greet them with your warm personality. I will always remember the good times from back in the day when you and Amp would dance at house parties, your sharp witted jokes, to the love of your children you shared with Veronica in raising them. You also gave me the pleasure of introducing me to your brother, Shawn, which to this day I pray for and wish the very best. You will always hold a special place in my heart now and forever..
Veronica-
I am so, so sorry you must deal with this pain for you and your children. My deepest sympathy goes out to you and I keep praying for God to give you strength in order to keep going on for your beautiful babies. Greg will always be looking down on all of you with love.
Mommy,Nadia,Dre,Jacki,Debbie- I am so sorry for your loss.. and you are all in my prayers. May God bless you with love, strength and peace in order for you to get through this difficult time. Mommy, you did an amazing job in raising him.
Love always,
Stephanie, Carlos, Vanessa and Giani

My friend Greg: Let me start by saying I loved you as a friend, a person a wonderful father to your children. I know how much you loved them they were EVERYTHING to you. God has taken you for a reason only he knows. When I found out about this tragedy my heart felt like it exploded I was so hurt I couldn't stop crying for days. I remember our last phone conversation how you were so proud of your "new home" You wanted me to come see it so bad but I never had time. I miss you already I still can't believe you are gone. May you rest in peace and sing with the angels as you did when you were on earth. My condolences go out with your family may god watch over you and heal all your wounds. He will be missed. He was such a wonderful person always knew how to make you laugh and put a smile on your face. I am sorry for your loss stay strong and know that he is now watching over all of you..LOVE SANDY R.

Greg,

Let me start by saying "why did you forget your prom dress"? This is an inside joke that only Greg, Tania, and myself will understand.

I really don't know where to start. We have been bestfriends since 7th grade which is a long long time ago. I remember when I lived with Angie on 16-1/2 street in Reading and we use to sneek you in the house when Angie's father was not home. That was truly awesome and unforgettable times. You were always the big brother that I never had, you would always defend me from guys that were being jerks and I will never forget that! When you were away for a bit I always use to think about you and never did forget. It was cool knowing that our friendship picked up where we left off and felt like no time had passed by. That is a true friend.

I will never forget you and will always keep you in my heart along with the pictures that I have of you from back in the day... I mean back in the day.

Veronica, stay strong and know that you have a lot of people around you that really do care and want to help. Stay positive and strong for the kids and most importantly yourself. That is what Greg would have wanted you to do!

A brief candle; both ends burning
An endless mile; a bus wheel turning
A friend to share the lonesome times
A handshake and a sip of wine
So say it loud and let it ring
We are all a part of everything
The future, present and the past
Fly on proud bird
You're free at last
