I was in Columbus and met Adrienne on Friday and obviously talked about Greg. Early Saturday Morning after I heard the news, I thought she had gone home, but I found her! Same friggen spirit as her Dad and I have a Great New Friend in our Buddy's Daughter.

GodSpeed Greg!

Love you Adrienne Weld!

I had never met Greg in person but read all his posts here and interacted with him many times. He always said to everyone if you see me at a show stop and introduce yourself. Well I knew he was supposed to be going to Columbus so I couldn't wait to finally meet him. I had been busy traveling to the event and working the PPG booth so I had not been on social media at all. On Saturday morning I saw the truck in the Builder's Choice area. So I went to the back of the truck where a few people were sitting. I asked the young lady sitting there if Greg was around, her response was that he had passed Friday night. What an absolute punch to the gut. I can't describe the mixed emotions. Obvious total sadness for his loss, Her loss and complete embarrassment for asking about him not knowing. I learned that young woman was his beautiful daughter. I walked away stunned and at a loss for words.

Godspeed Greg.....

RIP Greg.

RIP.

Although I did not meet Greg, he was one of those people who, when I would see he posted anything, I would immediately read his words. I was away due to some personal illness and saw this yesterday. Sure hit me. I wish the best for his family.

Very sad.
I have known Greg for 14 years, had many conversations and a few good meals together. We would talk about business and cars and life. He always had a story for every occasion. Always the first to offer advise without bias.

You may be surprised to know that until the the Dirt Missile needed to be fixed Greg had not ever purchased anything from Speedtech and that was not a big deal, it was not about that. It was just about being friends.

I have lost one of MY best friends. We all have lost a great man, friend and supporter.

:cheers::cheers::cheers:
until me meet again my friend

RIP Greg. If there's a hot rod heaven, I'm sure you're there now.

I heard the news on Saturday, and instantly felt sad. I never met the man in person but valued how he was always willing to help just about anybody. What an amazing tribute to him to come on here and read all these comments. Prayers to his friends and family. God Speed Greg!
