Greg and I grew up in Carroll Twp., PA from grade school to Junior High. We went to Donora H.S. but he left in 10th grade because his dad transferred to Valparaiso IN & I left at the beginning of 12th grade as my dad transferred to Fairless Hills, PA. We corresponded occasionally and he even drove out to Carol Stream, IL when I moved there. I always remembered him being involved in the youth group at the local Methodist Church in Donora and I was jealous. In the summer, when we were pre-teens, I used to climb up in his Golden Delicious apple tree and eat them while he and Mary Clare were called in for lunch. If I was lucky, I would get to taste some of his mom's fantastic home-made root beer!

Rest easy Greg. At the age of 80, I'm not too far behind you.

He was a great Friend both in High School and when we lived in Colorado. He, will leave a hole in our thoughts and hearts as his life left his physical body; but his soul will go to the Heavenly Kingdom to be with his lovely wife; whom, he missed dearly. Deepest codoalescent to family and loved ones.
