I remember showing up for the Columbia Heights football game I thought that I was early Greg was always there before me and his son Chris played along with my son Matt we talked over strategy we just decided how we were going to try to win this game that was one of the best years ever 'm sure Chris and him up in the heavens are happy back together God bless the two young men and the family take care go Heights together those two blondies hit the hardest I was thinking what if his brother Matt have been one year older that would have been Matt and Matt and Chris on the same team that's the state winner Greg and I would still be dancing in the cheap seats

We've lost another good man. Good natured, fun to be with, Greg was just 'one of those guys' you couldn't help but like! I'm fortunate to have met and spent some time with him. They talk about the DASH between our 'start and stop' dates...his is a great one!
