Greg was a loving father, brother, and friend. He served in the United States Navy from 1955-1963. In his free time, he enjoyed gardening and tending to his plants. Greg was always active. He enjoyed chopping wood, walking to the post office, and being out and about. He was an excellent guitarist. Greg once played with the famous Chet Atkins. His family all loved hearing him play. One of his favorite songs was 'This Ain't My First Rodeo,' by Vern Gosdin, which was the last song Julie listened to with him. Greg loved fried haddock from the Cortland seafood.
