I turn to see if you are there, I wait by the phone to perhaps answer your call, Then finally I realize walking down the long hall, you wont be there at the end standing ever so tall, the phone wont ring cause you can never call but one thing that finally rang true, is that because of you the sky is ever so blue, the night stars shine ever so true, and when I turn you were and will always be there, and when I have cried you have wiped my tears dry, when I think I cant go on you lift me up to fly, because when you left you became a piece of my heart and you became a piece of my soul to always carry me down life's very hard road. Missing you, always loving you, needing you, always wanting you. You have gave the word "forever" a new meaning to my life. Thank you again my deep and dear friend.

Greg was a sweet, quiet, and loving guy. I remember how much he loved his friends and, of course, that incredible smile! I just watched him in the Expose video and I'm so happy there's film out there to remember him. Rest in peace, my friend! Love, Niza

I am still in great shock and sadness over the news of Greg's passing. Though I had not seen Greg in 20 years, the memories of him will forever live within my heart.

Greg and I were only two months apart in age and our families were very close growing up (our Mother's went to school together. His parents are my Godparents and my parents are his Godparents), so I have many childhood memories that involve this beautiful and talented young man, even the night (when we were 7) when he slapped me in the face because we both wanted to be G.I. Joe. LOL!

My thoughts and prayers are with Greg’s family, especially my Nina Gloria (his Mother) and all of Greg’s friends and those lives he so greatly touched. He is no longer suffering, but is at peace and is a bright shinning Star.

Farewell my childhood friend.

My deepest condolences to the family my heart goes out to his sister Karen and those who surround him with love. Greg was a nice guy and had a passion for theater he will be sorely missed. Keep smiling Greg!

I remember Greg from many years of theatre together and many more laughs. His smile and dimples are unforgettable and his youthful exhuberance for life were infectous.He's perfect now in a perfect place and can finally get some well deserved rest. Go in peace brother, we'll meet again.

Greg and me, Summer of '89 in NYC

Greg was my best friend and I was lucky to have spent the past 15 years with him. But most of all he was my Hero, he made me want to be a better person. He made me laugh, he made my problems seem smaller, he made me feel safe and he would light up a room when he walked into it. He was a leader and I followed, and if I could do it all over again I wouldn't change a thing. Part of me died today, all of me cried today, it will be so hard to do this life without him. My heart goes out to his loving family. Miss him so much already. I'll see you on the other side Greg. Ronnie Greeb(Palm Springs,CA)
