I am so sorry for your family´s loss. I was telling Becca I have a very special memory of when Gregory and I first met. It was when I first moved to NYC and we met at a bar on Tuesday karaoke night. We started talking outside and we wanted to do a duet so we did Take Me or Leave Me from Rent. We did AMAZING! That´s when we new we had to be best friends. We were very close that year. Always hanging out, going out, doing things together. He is such a special guy and was an amazing friend.

Greg was my housemate in Bar Harbor, He was always extremely kind to me and he even brought me flowers before he moved out. He told me he was making bouquets of flowers for his friends and local businesses. I didn´t get to know Greg well but his demeanor told me he was a kind, respectful and caring man. I am praying for your family and I am so sorry for your loss.
