Today is Sunday August 28, 2022 and I have to say that I still Miss Greg terribly and always will. Hardly a time goes by where I’m not thinking about him or telling someone about his life. He would always make time for me, pull out his Bible and read and pray with me. He was the most generous person I’ve known. I truly wish that he were here to help me finish up the most horrible ordeals I’ve ever lived through.
God Bless you Gregory and Lord please take care of his dear family.
Dann habe ich noch eine zweite Tasche genäht.
I’ve known Greg since he first started at the Department of Revenue, many, many years ago. I always enjoyed talking with him. He was such a pleasant person. It just felt good to be in his presence. I am so sorry for your loss. Hold your memories close to your heart.
Greg was truly delightful to supervise as his supervisor when I worked at the
Colorado Department of Revenue. He was
filled with enthusiasm and passion for his job.
He also exercised compassion when dealing with taxpayers and yet he was
firm. He usually went beyond his job
duties to resolve issues. He will be
missed but will never be forgotten as a good employee and nice guy.
Greg was a great co-worker. As a TP Agent he was the best support ever and as a Revenue Agent he was ever diligent but fair. He was what I thought should be the perfect role model for the job. He was a good person and one need spend just a moment with him to know how much he loved and cared for Debbie and Corey. Our prayers are with you both in this difficult time.
I worked with Greg at the State of Colorado until I retired in 2008. He was very knowledgeable and very considerate of his co-workers. My condolences to his family.
My deepest sympathies. Greg was great to work with and I will miss him and his passion and enthusiasm.
Love and peace be with you and your family at this time. You lived a life much fuller than anyone would have ever guessed when you were young. You were a “mover” then and didn’t let your heart problems slow you down too much in life. Prayers for all your family.
My family’s prayers are with Greg’s family at his sudden death. He will be missed by his fellow employees at the Dept. May God bless you during this difficult time.
Vernon and I were so saddened to hear of Greg’s passing and send our regards and deepest sympathy. He was the nicest person to work with when he was helping us with our taxes and we will miss him a lot.
Our prayers and condolences on the loss of a good friend, supporter and delegate. We will miss his presence and participation at future meetings. May he rest in peace.
Rest in piece,Greg. You worried about retirement and medical expenses but now you are in God’s hands. Even with health struggles,you found happiness with a wife and child. They too will have fond memories of their life with you.
