Frank and Sandy,
I wish you peace on your loss of your son Greg.
There is a Native American proverb that goes "They are not gone that live in the hearts they left behind."
I'm confident that your Greg will be remembered by many.
My heartfelt condolences.

I met Greg at Gold's Gym years ago. He was one of the morning crew and was always helpful and respectful. I remember looking at pictures of his dogs and talking about music (he liked the really heavy stuff as I recall). My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Frank, Sandy and Frankie. My deepest sympathy for your loss!! I know it has been a very long time since Greg and I last saw each other, but I still remember all the good times we had together. For a time, he and I were inseparable. I owe him a great deal and if it weren't for him I probably wouldn't be the person I am today. Unfortunately I will not be able to attend Greg's services, but my thoughts and prayers will be with you all.
