 I don't remember when I met Greg Wilson, but he grew to be a valued friend.  He had the biggest heart and a passion for life.  He truly would give you the shirt off his back.  Every time I hear "Maggie May" I think of Greg.

Greg will always have my gratitude and respect!  At a time when I was about to make a terrible mistake, and accept the responsibility for something I was not responsible for, it was Greg that demonstrated the character to tell me the truth about what had been going on, and convinced me it would be a foolish thing, not an honorable thing, to accept any responsibility.
 
Also, while I was in the Marines Greg made it a point to contact my older brother, on many occasions, and to inquire about my well being; for both these things I will always be grateful.

The one thiing I remember most about Greg was his smile.  No matter who he was with or what he was doing, you always saw that smile. If you needed help, he would be the first one there. He had a big heart and was a great friend. His smile said it all.
