Greg had a voracious appetite for knowledge and was an avid reader.  He could often be found engrossed in a book, delving into a wide range of topics.  His curiosity knew no bounds, and he thoroughly enjoyed engaging in discussions on various subjects.  Greg had his own unique perspectives on life and the world, but he always welcomed the opportunity to listen to others and engage in thoughtful conversations.

A man deeply devoted to his faith, Greg believed that reading the Bible was essential for one’s journey to heaven.  He cherished his family and held a special place in his heart for his four children, whom he adored unconditionally.  Even when circumstances kept him physically apart from them, his love for them remained unwavering.  His health in later years became very challenging.
