Greg loved fishing, the beach, his pets, NASCAR, and all of his family and friends, he owned a successful dry-walling business for twenty-five years, and was like a second father to many whom he loved dearly as well. He adored his dogs: Mona, Roo, Prada, Bailey, Snowflake, and cat Delilah, they were all very dear to him. He will be missed by so many but his memory and infectious, genuine smile will always be remembered in all the hearts he touched over his lifetime.

    My thoughts and prayers are with you Sammy and Ray. What great high school days we had. Although I have not seen you in decades I have fond memories of those years. Greg had such an infectious smile and he was a great (shag) dancer. God bless each of you during these difficult days. Susan Holder
