I did not know Greg a long time, but happy that I got to know him briefly. He was smart, light-hearted, and incredibly kind. May all the good memories stay in our hearts and peace be in his soul forever.
I grew up with Greg and Larry as I lived next door. Greg was a great big brother to me and I learned all about sports and games. While I was the youngest of our group Greg always let me play. He taught basketball, football and baseball. I also played many games from Monopoly to Battleship to Booby Trap. I thank Greg for giving me my competitive spirit which he gave me…….Greg you will be missed……..Rest Buddy.
Greg was a great friend not only to my brother Ed but to me as well was always there if I needed to talk . He will be greatly missed. Fly high with the angels Greg 😇.
I have known Greg for over 40 years. It should be noted that Greg was a brilliant software developer who dedicated his life to building enterprise-level software applications. All of his customers and colleagues adored him and were amazed at what he brought to the table in terms of technology. He loved his work and will always be remembered for his contributions to business software development.
Smart, funny, weird, caring, and all things to his friends. He’ll be missed by those closest to him but the memories will make us laugh, cry, smile, and maybe a bit wistful.
Greg was a true friend and all around good guy even if he went to Richards (inside joke). I get the last word, and it’s buh-BYE.
I will miss our conversations about sports, life and our health. Greg was like a big brother to me. I knew him for 23 years. His office was right next to mine for the last 6 years and I will miss his smile, quirkiness, yelling, pacing and frustration with clients and coworkers. I wish he had more time to enjoy his retirement but God had other plans for him. RIP my friend until we meet again to discuss our disappointing sports teams.
Greg is fondly remembered from First Christian Church of Chicago. I am so sad to hear of his passing. God bless all of Greg’s family and friends, especially Larry. – Lynn McCullagh Schmid
