Barbara and family,
Samara and I are very sorry for your loss. Greg was a wonderful man, a great guy who never was without a smile on his face. I enjoyed every time i saw him and got to play music with him or talk about music and life. My deepest sympathy for your loss and condolences in this time. I know he will be missed greatly by so many of us that knew him.
My deepest condolences to you and your family. Greg was a good man always thinking about his wife, children. I loved watching him play alongside Robert “Freddy”. Prayers for you and your family. May he rest in peace.
I am so sorry for your loss, I will be praying for you and all your family.
We are so sad to hear of your loss, and are keeping the entire family in our prayers. We can only imagine the rejoicing that will take place on the day that you are all reunited with Greg in heaven.
I’m so very sorry, to hear about Greg! I had not seen Greg since we were kids, but I remember he was always a kind heart! And I want the family to know that I send my prayers and my love! Sincerely, from my heart! Lisa (Eidson) Bunch
Such an amazing and sincere man. He will truly be missed. Sending my love and prayers to the entire friends and family.
Greg helped BoX a RocKs many times in different ways from opening for Y ask Y on a couple of occasions to stepping in to play in place of Craig Tyler when Craig had to leave the band due to a promotion at work while we were obligated to fulfill an engagement. I can’t say I knew him near as well as a lot of people but what I do recall of him is kindness, generosity, encouragement and a love for people and music. I know he had a heart for God and his fellow man and I’m sure he is resting peacefully and will hear the words of the Lord saying “Well done, my good and faithful servant!” May the Lord be with you Barbara and Greg’s entire family. I haven’t one unpleasant memory of Greg and it will be a great day when we all are reunited in heaven playing the God gig, the Jesus jam! God bless Greg and everyone who had the pleasure of knowing him!
Barbara and Family,
So very sorry to hear about Greg. He was taken far too soon. Will keep you and family in my prayers. My condolences.
My heart is truly broken over the loss of Greg.Never in my life,have I met a person woth the kindness he had.Greg had a way,of making everyone have fun,and a good time,it was a magic he possessed,in the world of show Buissness,but also with people in general.I will never forget summer of 1993,when I first met Greg,and he and Bob Murphy played together in the band.Nor all the years to follow,it didn’t matter my location,we always stayed in touch,and worked on music ventures.I feel horrible this evening,that I was not able to be with all my friends,to remember him in person.Please know,I will always keep Greg in my heart,and a part of everything I ever do…I will miss you Greg…
