Prayers sent for Greg, Anna and all those affected by this sad event. I knew Greg for a long time and we cut up with each other here. Great guy and I will miss him.

What a loss - like many others I never met him in person but always seemed like a great dude reading his posts over the years. RIP

I’m another member who never met Greg, just knew him from his many posts. Always pleasant and sincere you could tell he was a good and honorable man. I will definitely miss his input on the forums. RIP Greg.

So sad to hear this. My deepest and most sincere sympathies go out his friends and family. I always smiled when we’d interact here on the forums. He never hesitated to lend a hand in helping me figure out questions I asked and I always felt honored when he’d share his interest in restoration steps I was trying to complete. Such a great presence here… he will definitely be missed 😔

Having never spoken to him or met him in person, I was hesitant to post that I felt like I knew him through our years of interactions here. It's clear he had that effect on everyone here. I definitely felt a bond as we were working on our restos around the same time. I hope to leave such a positive impression on folks I never met like he did.

I had no idea he was sick. We've talked a few times on the phone, and I've sold him parts for his GTO. This is unreal. It's so hard to believe.

I'm so sorry to hear this Anna. My condolences to you and your family and friends. May he rest in peace. God bless you Greg, you will be missed by many. Especially here on the PY forums.
