He worked at GJ's Pizza for 40 years, starting as a young boy. He saw the store through many changes and developed friendships that lasted a lifetime.
He was a great cook and enjoyed having get togethers at the farm. He loved hunting, fishing and the outdoors. Greg made several trips to Eleuthera Bahamas fishing, Colorado Elk hunting, Quebec Caribou hunting, Montana site seeing, trips to the UP and many deer camps at the farm with family and friends. Greg was also one of the founding members of Ducks Unlimited in Fife Lake.
