He looked out for me at the salvation army in uptown. 2005-2006. I will be forever grateful for his inspiration and encouragement. I survived. He is one of the reasons. My prayers are with the family. M. E. Nix

Greg was a dear friend from his post office days. He happened to show up at the hospital and I was there with my daughter who was very sick. He asked to pray over her and I believe that helped cause she turned a corner for the better. I will always remember him for that. Rest in peace Greg. Sorry to the family for their loss
