I really hated to hear this sad news. Greg was a helluva guy and will be sorely missed. R.I.P. our friend.

Man, this just sucks.

One hell of a guy, they broke the mold with him. A huge part of this community.

This has been heavy on me since I heard early this morning. I'm glad I got to talk with him on the phone a few weeks ago about cars and life in general. We didn't speak one word about his health as I knew he didn't need nor want to talk about it. He lived life like everyone hear would want to the fullest. He was not one of the richest men I knew because of his money, but because of his friendship and willingness to help out so many others. Very few truly will know his generosity and I am grateful to have personally known Greg, which I would never had known if it hadn't been for this community of people commonly referred to as Lateral-G.

First time I met Greg Weld was in Vegas at a Lateral-g.net gathering. We were making a plate and I wasn’t paying attention(mostly because I was at a higher altitude), then I bumped into him. I didn’t see him because I was a good 14 inches taller than he was. He stood there looking up at me for a brief moment, me at him...

He said “Well, I guess I’m gonna have to whip your ass...”

We both stood there for another second...and we both busted out laughing. We’ve been friends since. Single funniest dude I’ve ever met.

The worlds smaller without this giant of a man in it.

Very sad to hear this. Greg was the greatest guy I never met. He gave so much to so many folks. He will be missed.

My deepest condolences to the Weld family.
