My most sincere condolences to Jeanne, Taylor and Ally. While I was first aware of his illness on December 24th, it was not until a few hours ago that I heard of his passing. He was a man I silently respected and had great admiration for. I could spend an entire Thanksgiving standing in the driveway discussing our many common interests. He was always so engaging in conversation: a zeal that we should all be so fortunate to share. I was fortunate enough to have shared the annual conversations with him; those memories are the ones that I will truly cherish for the remainder of my life. He was a man we should all seek to emulate in so many ways, and his passing, indeed, hurts my heart. I will keep the entire family in my thoughts and prayers: that the Lord may assuage your bereavement. In his repose I pray that he be welcomed into the light of God's face. You will be missed sorely and thought of fondly.

What a great picture of our dear friend Greg!  Taylor looks so much like his great dad!  You showed your family how to love unconditionally.  You always put Jeanne's, Ally and Taylor's needs above your own desires.  We miss those beautiful baby blue eyes, your smile and your infectious laugh.  We are.so incredibly sad to see you leave us.  You were a wonderful friend and we were blessed to have journeyed this great planet earth together for a time....a season too short.  But it is not goodbye dear friend.  We shall meet again in heaven, so see you later. Thank you for all the great memories.  We shall keep our promise to watch after your family, especially Taylor.  It was always exciting to see you pull your boat out of your garage as you prepared to go lobster diving in the Florida Keys.  Our happiest memories of you though, was simply sharing good food and conversations at our patio, or greeting one another as we came and went daily.  Who is going to watch over our neighborhood?  I imagine you are from heaven :)  Love and miss you with all our hearts, dear, sweet Greg.

Our sincerest condolences go out to Jeanne and her children on the passing of Greg. We went to Florida Southern with Greg and continued our friendship through life. I have many lasting memories of Greg when I was on the FSC Crew team, where he was given the name "Spider". Riding our Harley Sportsters up and down A1A and attending Bike Week in Daytona were always great times. Greg provided a number of cool memories when he arranged for us to fly over our house in Lakeland when he worked for Piper Aircraft and when he took us out in his boat to watch an early space shuttle launch when he lived in Melbourne. I'll miss his impish laugh and smile that always signalled his pleasure with some aspect of life. Though we had been separated by time and space through the years, once we reconnected it was like there had been no gap in our lives. He was a true friend and will be greatly missed.

Jeanne and family,  I'm sadden by Greg's passing.   I've know Greg for 40 years.  He was one of my oldest friends.   I most admired his devotion to his family, zest for life, and his sense of humor.  Greg had a great laugh. He will be missed.

Jeanne and family, Jennifer and I are sad with the news of Greg's passing. Just the thought of "Spider" brings a smile for the wonderful times we had in Boca Raton. May God bless you and your family.

Ally, Jeanne and family. What a wonderful picture of your dad and I'm so sorry to hear news of his passing.  We have not met, but Greg was a fraternity brother of mine. I remember him fondly and may he rest in peace.  God bless you and your family in this difficult time. John Knierman (FSC)
