So sad.
I never got a chance to meet Greg, but from what I read and seen online, he was a great person.
Rest In Peace Greg. God Bless.

Honestly the last 24 hours for me have been tough.
A friend I never met in person or spoke to by phone passed away. My emotions yesterday made no sense. I mourned and cried for a person I've only known virtually. He helped me many times with projects, gave advice through email and IM. I was so sad to hear of his passing.

Greg Weld you were a good friend, your humor, advice, direction to me personally will never be forgotten. Your legacy as a Giver, Great guy, inspiration and caring for others, and your love for people and a hobby we all had in common will never be forgotten.

Your kindness and generosity will forever be infused into my soul.

Thank you brother for caring!

Had the pleasure of meeting Greg at the Goodguys show in Loveland with my daughter a few years back and then on two GG tours. What a great guy. He made me feel like we knew each other for years. I thanked him for his advice... I learned much from him. He will be missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

I was at the track all weekend and just heard. I couldn't stop the tears. RIP Greg!

Sad day for sure. I never met the man but he was definitely an important contributor to the forum. More importantly, seemed like a very good guy.

I joined this site to learn more about Greg's Ol' Yeller Mustang. Shortly after, I was doing track days--Greg is to blame for that part of this hobby in my life. I hung out with Greg at many events over a few years, at Laguna Seca, Thunderhill, and Sonoma; many of us here will have permanent memories of Greg at all of these tracks. Somehow, Greg created more access to the higher levels of the hotrod hobby for a lot of people who never would have set foot in certain places otherwise. Greg was kind of an all-access pass.

Through Greg and his presence at various events, many of us on this site have become friends, kind of like relatives who only see each other a couple times a year. Greg literally brought strangers who are car guys together from all over the country and said "hey, have a hot dog." One connection with Lateral G, and you were his neighbor.

Greg was a great ambassador and a flagship for most people in the car hobby. The old Greg will be missed, but the generosity will live on.
