Greg. You were amazing. I'll never forget how you helped my Nephew Tommy. He passed in 2006, but you got him to where he needed to be. May your soul rest in eternal peace. A harder worker, I've never met. What an asset you were to all of us at Olympus. With love & sincere thanks always, gloria ?

I woked with Greg in the surgical intraocular lens business in the early 1990's. for some reason Ithought of him this morning and looked online to see how he was doing. I am so sorry to hear of his passing. Like many who have commented I remember his exuberent smile and boundless enegy. I also remember his frequent mentions of his wife, almost as if she were in the next room. I believe he referred to her as "Kell". Greg was one of a kind...

I am very sorry to learn of your loss. I met Greg in 1980 when I played soccer with him at Western Connecticut State University. I have many fond memories of those games and my interactions with him on and off the field, he was a fantastic goalkeeper. Greg was also my RA in the dorm where he was always willing to lend a helping hand to anyone in need. He was a very passionate and considerate person. Please accept my sincerest condolences.

Hi Uncle Greg, I have so many memories as a child. I still have old VHS tapes of family barbecues in Washington twp and above everything else, I remember your smile. Yes life is tough and in your line of work very busy....but whenever you were around family you were in complete happiness and it seemed as nothing else mattered. If anything I take from the years I've spent with you growing up,(mostly as a child) I will always remember you as God first, FAMILY, then everything else. It's funny, I remember talking with you at Ryan's wedding about being in sales as a career and how you told me if that's something I'm looking to get into then remember one thing...never let it outweigh the time you have with your family. Well unlce Greg, it's a few years later and here I am in sales and because of you I now know to always make time for family. I thank you for that, I thank you for your kindness and nothing but good memories. You have raised a beautiful family that will carry on life long lessons and influence you had on them throughout life. I love you and thank you.

Our sweet brother, Rest In Peace. You fought a valiant fight. We will always remember your love and trust for the Lord and how you always put him first in your life. You are a wonderful example to all of us. We will miss your "extraordinary" sense of humor and your beaming smile. Now you are truly the "golden boy" lighting up heaven with your presence. We will all be together again one day. Love you.
