Thinking of you today Greg. It’s been so long. Love you.
I knew Greg for little over three months. We both joined Wyeth Pharma. on the same day & worked together. I would always remember him as a straight, open, transparent & helpful person. I was thinking to relocate to the same Tri-city area where he came from & he helped me lot to get as many informations as he could. He always encouraged me to move there & now I might.
We shared lot of gossips, information, & knowledge during his short tenure in NJ/NY area.
May his soul rest in peace.

Don and Sam,
I am so saddened to hear of Greg’s passing. I had the priveledge to know him while he worked at PNNL; he worked on a couple of my projects under Shu-mei’s supervision. It was clear Greg was a gifted and very bright individual and it was a great pleasure to me to see the enthusiasm he had for the work he did here. And what a laugh he had!! Although he had a short life he touched many people. I extend my condolences and prayers to you, his family, and his many friends. We all miss him and know he is in a good place.

Dear Greg I just wanted you to know I think of you all the time.
Our deepest sympathies go to Greg’s family–his grandparents, parents, sister, brother, nieces and nephews.
It was a pleasure working with Greg at Wyeth
Pharmaceuticals. He and his laugh will be greatly
missed.
To the family and friends of Greg…my thoughts and prayers are with you.
I worked with Greg for several years in the Toxicology Department at Battelle. He was a great co worker. We became good friends during this time. Greg was always there to share a good laugh or a joke. His sense of humor was really unlike anyone I have known. I was having some really hard times that I was going through and Greg was always there to talk and listen. He had very good insight. He and I talked at great length about what happened to him in Oregon and how it affected him. I really found out how caring he was through that ordeal and not just about himself. I’ll never forget the great times we had going to boat races, sitting and watching football and baseball games with friends. My prayers are with his family. Goodbye my friend
Greg used to work in our department. He was a great guy and will be missed. My condolences to his family and friends.
Greg was a terrific co worker and a pleasant person. He will be dearly missed by us. My prayers are with your family and with him
Working with Greg was a wonderful experience. He was a kind and gentle soul and will be remembered in my heart for a very long time.
I went to school with Greg. He always had a smile for you,and was a very good person. He will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends.
I worked with Greg at Battelle – Toxicology Dept and got to know him as my son worked with him at Stirlings and we often talked about his work there. I enjoyed discussing movies and TV shows with Greg. As a mother of a son Greg’s age I always was concerned about his health. Even though he had left Battelle and I hadn’t seen him for awhile his death has deeply affected me. I know he is no longer in pain. My prayers are with the family during this difficult time. He will be missed.
