My heart is so sad too loss this really kick back happy go lucky guy . Was always amazed he could put up with me. God bless the love ones he had to leave behind.
Gregg and I played many a tennis match – doubles -sometimes with and sometimes against one another.
No matter, every time was a good exchange of friendly competition, along with lots of good-natured, jabbing comments, and strings of laughing banter all the way. I’ll miss those times. A peaceful eternity to you, Gregg.
I remember him as a fine man.
God bless you
Always pleasant and smiling. He will be greatly missed.
We are friends with Jennifer and did not know Gregg personally. But from what we understand, he was a genuinely fine person who left us way to soon and has left a legacy his family can be proud of.
Our heart goes out to his loving wife Jennifer and to the extended family.
I met Gregg at Gene Autry Tennis and always enjoyed his easy smile and good nature. He left too soon and will be missed.
My thoughts go out to his family.
We shall remember Gregs smile, his love of sports, good food and drink, Buddy, his loving wife Jennifer and his love of life. Thankful he was part of my life.
We shall miss him.
