Greg and i spent holidays together with our mother in law and family members. We convinced them to let us go and play 9 holes at a course around the corner prior to grilling, when we were about finished with the front 9 holes we decided to play the back 9 as well. When we finally returned to the party everyone was hungry and highly upset. We laughed about it every time we golfed. i truly loved Greg and never stopped referring him as my brother in law. You'll be missed Greg and never forget I always teased you and said you could throw a club further than you could hit it at times. Love you brother in law

I worked with Greg at the bus garage and the cafeteria at LH Central. Always in a great mood, and had many stories to tell one another. He will be missed dearly. RIP old friend.

This one hit really hard for me! Greg was not just my employee, he was my friend. He pretended to be gruff from time to time, but he had a heart of gold. His students loved him and he loved them right back. I don't know how many times Greg would get upset over something and swear he was going to quit. He would say, "I'm resigning." I would say go home Greg and sleep on it. The next day he would show up grinning asking if he was fired!
I know that Greg is happy now, as he is with his wife Debbie. He loved her with all his heart and never fully lived again when she passed. Greg you will be missed but will be forever in my heart. Enjoy eternity my friend.

Mr. Greg oh what a gentleman, he always referred to his wife as, "My wife" his mom always, "My mother". Greg made sure "His wife had what she needed every morning before he came to work and durning break he would go and take care of his mother's needs. My story about Greg would be, he had two pair of exact white shoes. A pair at "His mother's" before he would leave her house he would put on that pair and leave his current shoes. She would clean them and they would be ready for him the next day! He bragged to me how white and clean his shoes were. That "His mother" took care of them for him. Greg always had that warm smile. We shared many mornings talking on Ole' Bus 21. His cabinet was full of goodies. He'd ask me, "Baby girl what do you want?" I know there is a warm place in many people's hearts that Greg has touched. This world would be a whole lot nicer with more Mr. Greg's. He will be very sadly missed but his memory will live on in our hearts.

Mr Greg and I became fast friends when I went back to work at Licking Heights transportation. I took my husband on a football trip with us one Friday and from then on he and Mr Greg were like besties! He had the best smile and gave the best hugs!! He will be missed so much!
