Greg joined the US Army in 1969 and was stationed in Vietnam until 1970. He spent most of his life living on farms where he enjoyed gardening, cutting wood and making homemade wine and horseradish. He loved spending time on the river on his pontoon fishing with friends and family. Greg enjoyed quiet evenings with his dog, Pepper. He spent his last years with special friends, Stephen, Xander and Madisyn Kostoff and Deb Hemming, Lori Harms and very special friend, Doug "Lefty" Schwab who spent many hours with him in his last months. Greg was always very happy when his brother Tom could come spend time with him. He was a Jack of all trades but spent many years in the plumbing business.
