A man of courage and integrity, worthy of respect and admiration; a good role model for those around him. He will be missed and warmly remembered. 73 Sir. Bill - VE3MEW & Margi

Sorry to hear that Greg has left us. I enjoyed the times I shared with you Shirley and Greg over Saturday morning breakfasts. I know he has gone on to be in a more comforting and pain free place. May God continue to bless you in Love.

Will miss my friend Greg a lot, may the eternal cedar be with you always, your friend Tom

Dear Greg's Family. I'm very sorry for what has taken place in your family. Greg worked with me for many years at Honda. He taught me things and I was very lucky to work beside him. We had many laugh's about things throughout our days working with each other. I was so scared to go see him at the hospital, I was told that he just went back in. I myself will miss him a lot.

Dear Shirley,
I send my deepest condolences to you and Greg"s Family
I only became Greg's friend 3 years ago when I rejoined the PARC
He was a cheerful guy willing to help anyway he could.
It was nothing for Greg to jump in the car and head up to Peterborough for a coffee at Tim's  or eat at the restaurant. He would get into great conversations at these times (he was such a tease). 
He will be missed and I know he was so proud of you for getting your license.
We will help you in any way we can 
going forth .Please don't hesitate to ask.

Shirley,  My deepest condolences on the passing of Greg. We knew each other for nearly 30 years going back to his days with the motor sports club. He was a great competitor, organizer and worker for rallies, ice racing and other events. Most recently our contacts have been through amateur radio and his participation on public service events was always efficient and professional. We shall all miss him.  It is with regret that I will not be able to attend the memorial service on the 29th. But please extend my sympathies to all members of Greg's family.

  It is with deep sadness, I extend my sincere condolences to Greg's wife Shirley, all of Greg's family, and friends. I have spoke with Greg a few times over the amateur airwaves, and enjoyed good conversations with him. Although I never got to meet him personally, face to face, he still left his mark on my life as a very fine gentleman. It is indeed, a sad day for amateur radio, and he will be greatly missed both on the airwaves, and in person. RIP Greg.

We competed with (not against) Greg and Rob many times - often as one my daugthers remembers setting up next to them in service.  Greg was always ready to help without hesitation or reservation.  I remember two specific siutations at Baie and Tall Pines where he went well out of his way to help us.

The good things for us from rally have been the really good people we have met and Greg was certainly among that group.

Rest in peace Greg.

Jim, Becky, Marianne

Dear Shirley, please accept my sincere sympathy on your loss.
I only knew Greg for the three years since my involvement with the Peterborough Amateur Radio Club but from that time till the present he impressed me with his good humour and thoughtfulness for others.
Always willing to help, always cheerful and always there for others, I will long remember him!
May God bless.
Neil VE3AXG

I've only known Greg for a little over a year since I joined the Peterborough Amateur Radio Club. His positive attitude certainly came through in spades. Cancer has hit my family big time this year and Greg was eager to comfort and encourage my wife and I as we deal with her cancer and my sister's cancer. Rest in peace, Greg, there is no more pain where you are now, only joy!

Greg was a  one of a kind man....he  had such a great sense of humor...on the amateur radio nets, he would have everyone laughing and wondering how he would come up with stuff...i had the pleasure of meeting Greg at my home on several occasions....he  shared the same occupation as me....licensed mechanic..and we would help people out with some of there problems......we  will miss Greg  but will never forget him.....
