I still miss Greg and his music. I wish more of it were avalable so that I could listen and remember the good times. I grew up with and went to school with Greg. He was always good to me, generous with what ever had, always ready to help out. He loved to teach, I wish that I hade shared more of his musical ability so that I could have learned more. He was respectful and kind to me. It is sad that so often the most gifted among us are the most troubled. It is funny that someone earlier had mentioned him playing and singing The Great Physician. I never told him but that was my favorite of all his songs. He made this song his own and you could hear him cry out to God at a deep spiritual level. I know that Pain and Chemicals may have brought out the worst at times, but I never witnessed it. I hope and belive that he is playing in Heaven and I will see him again someday.
