This was the first time I had been around Greg outside of the shop. This was the Del Mar Good Guys show 2011. I do believe he sported this hat for a little bit on Saturday morning of the show after proudly wearing it during our entire meal at the Mexican Restaurant the night before. I always appreciated Greg's honesty, sense of humor and overall passion for the things and people he loved. He was always encouraging of my career and never held back on his opinions and inputs on how I should go about my business. These are conversations I will cherish for ever and will continue to look back on when I need a boost. Thanks for being a Mentor and Friend Greg! Rest in Peace

Greg hated this pic at first. IIRC Sieg got him...lol
So to lessen its effect I cut it in half. 
Looks like he came to embrace ‘T-Greg’ later...haha.

I realize that none of you likely know me, especially since I haven't really posted on here in a few years, but I have been around for a good 12 years.
Between all the car sites I visit (not often enough) Greg was always the one that stuck out. In a good way. He always had the passion, the drive, and the attitude that made up entertaining posts.
Everywhere I look, Greg was posting something. Always helpful and funny, never afraid to speak his mind.
I never spoke to the guy, messaged him, or interacted with him in any way, but after reading the Dirt Missile thread these past few months I was going to make it a point to seek him out at GoodGuys in Scottsdale (if he was there).
Sad to say, I never got to do that this spring, and it looks like I won't this fall either. I feel like I lost a friend even though we never spoke!
Rest in peace Greg, you were a one of a kind guy, a friend to all.
We should all be a little more "Greg" every day.
