Randy Anderson says
Gregg was always cheerful to be around. We had the opportunity to hang together when I paid him a visit while he lived in Georgia. It was a great time and we got to know each other better as adults. He was a favorite of my children. They always said that cousin Gregg is so nice and so funny. He always gave us a good laugh when he would come for a visit, He will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
