There are a lot of good memories with Greg and the family.  To name a few - started when he was just 2 years old at the US paralympics in Salt Lake City. Watching him line up all his trucks and cars methodically in a row - precisely and organized.  We all commented how he had the engineer way of thinking at age 2.  I also got to spend a month with Aimee, Kevin & Greg when he waslittle and I just remember non stop kid giggles from Greg as we played in the kid pool and ate McDonalds French fries.  
Another time with lotsof laughs was celebrating Rachel’s birthday where the family played this ridiculous game and Greg and his grandparents sat together - not winning - with “plastic poops” on their heads and we all were cracking up so hard. 
Last to share was this same family trip to Canmore/Banff and just seeing Greg’s peaceful smiling face in the Canadian Rockies mountains.

Greg was my first love. I was so lucky to have gotten to know him during his senior year at Chatfield and freshman year at Mines. The first time I met him was at my Grandma’s house because my uncle Curtis told him that I would be his date to prom. When my mom was trying to get to know him, she asked what he did at school and he told her, “I pay attention”. I think that interaction sums up his sense of humor so well.
 He was so quick and funny always made me laugh. He was so kind and generous, and truly cared about everyone in his life. He loved Mines and he loved SigEp so much when I knew him, I can only imagine how much that love grew. He was so easy going and such a good sport about all the stupid stuff I asked him to do, like go to my senior year homecoming with me.
I am so sorry for everyone who was lucky enough to know and love Greg. He was a genuinely good person who’s relaxed and compassionate personality drew everyone to him. I know he will be forever missed.

I got to know Greg over this past summer when Greg Rob Kori and I started what we coined the SigEp skate team. Greg and Rob would often come over to our apartment and the four of us would practice skate tricks over our old filled-in swimming pool. Occasionally we would go to the skate park and try to get a bowl or two in without getting in the way of the regulars. Greg was easy going and up for anything. He was clever, sarcastic and fucking hilarious with his dry sense of humor. Once everyone returned from summer break, I hung out with Greg and the rest of the fraternity and it was evident how much Greg was loved by the guys and how that love was reciprocated by Greg. Greg’s passing was devastating to so many of us, but I feel so lucky to have known him. He was amazing. I’m so sorry for your loss. We will miss him so much.

Being Grandparents living in NH we never saw our grandchildren as often as we would have liked. But on one particular visit Greg showed us how “big boys “ take a shower. He did this in the front window of the living room behind a sheer drape but totally visible to anyone passing by.  It is a picture forever etched in my mind whenever I think of Greg.
