Greg was a staple not just in our hearts, but in the community as well!

Howard Santa School, or to most importantly, becoming "Everyone's Santa", Greg left an incredible mark on hearts. His unwavering kindness and love of others, both young and old, helped all to "BELIEVE" and hold fast to that magical holiday spirit. His impact simply cannot be measured.

He will be missed by all who knew him; because to know him was absolutely to LOVE him.

Until we meet again…
