He was born in Jamestown, NY and graduated from Maple Grove Senior High. Greg was a hardworking man who was known for his kind heart, honesty, generosity and was a good listener. He had a strong love for his family, friends and his dog, Jack.
In his free time, he enjoyed playing his guitar and learning new songs. Greg loved the outdoors and had an adventurous spirit. Greg had a passion for sports cars, motorcycles, snow skiing, and hang gliding. He especially loved water sports, such as windsurfing, and barefoot water skiing (where he was one of the first on Lake Chautauqua to do so). He practiced hard to accomplish rowing in his Scull Boat; the full length of Lake Chautauqua.
After retiring from State Farm, Greg purchased an Egg Harbor boat; where he worked hard renovating "Great Scot". We enjoyed spending summers on the lake.
