It seems like just yesterday I answered the phone at Costas and heard Greg say "is my mom there" I was truly saddened when I heard the news yesterday. He was truly a wonderful person always laughing and having a good time and making everyone laugh. Although it has been a long time since I have seen anyone I think of you all often. My thoughts and prayers go out to the entire Lauersen family. Ill never forget him. God bless you all.</b></font><br><br>

I miss you. It was just a few weeks ago that we were out at the Chop House and you asked me if I was happy. You said, "Ab, I'm behind you with whatever you do. I'm living life, and I'm so happy." You said this with that smile that I think of everyday and that twinkle in your eye, that I miss so much. We will not cry for you. We will cry for our loss and await the day when we can meet again. I love you and miss you. -I know that if you're reading this you're thinking, "Abby, stop being so mushy." Well, I'm sorry. I just can't help it.</b></font><br><br>

GREG HAS ALWAYS BEEN SOMEONE WHO CAN PUT A SMILE ON YOUR FACE. SO SWEET AND FUN. WE JUST SAW GREG AT THE KIELBASA'S WEDDING AND HAD THE CHANCE TO CATCH UP AND SIT WITH HIM.

Gregg,
I don't even know where to begin. You were truly a special person. I would be hard pressed to think of anyone else who has been loved so deeply by so many people. Although I obviously already knew it, it has been reemphasized this week just how many great memories you have made in the minds of so many. I know you would get a kick out of some of the Gregg stories that I have heard this week. The thing I will remember most about you is that, just like the wonderful family you came from, you always made people feel welcome, loved, and most importantly, happy. You were one of the most genuine people I have ever known and you made every person you came in contact with feel like your best friend. I will never forget the times we spent together snowboarding, playing golf, hanging out on the lake in the summer, etc, etc. I will always be able to see your smile, hear your laugh, picture your golf swing, and much more because I know that these memories of you will be with me forever. I ask you to look over all of us until we meet again. I love you and I will never forget you.
Ken and Marilyn,
I am so sorry. I can't even begin to fathom your loss. I have always been a big believer that most people are shaped and influenced far more by their family than any other factor, and in this case I know that Gregg was truly a reflection of the great parents who raised him. The sadness felt by so many is a testament to the wonderful job that both of you have done. Thank you so much for bringing him into our lives. You are in our hearts and prayers.</b></font><br><br>

"The most amazing kid ever"
I remember the day I met you Gregory. It was at Tanglwood years ago with the usual crew. You could spin like a top and you were only ten. I looked up to you from that day forward. Over time you have done things people only dream of, but you never even had to try. I can easily say that Greg was the textbook definition of a "natural." The best part about Greg was that he had a heart of gold and could make everyone smile. Greg you showed me how to do many things over the years, like hit the golf ball past the ladies tee, ski, and have a good time. Greg, thank you for everything and keep an eye on us.

Gregg, We had only good times together. The slopes were sick and the rest of the times were great. It's your turn to call me on 'our' birthdays this year since I called you last year!! You'd better have a great story to tell about your last run at Winter Park. Keep your edge's sharp and your ski's waxed for next run we take together man. I'm counting on you to teach me some more and for your luck to get us through the hard spots.
It's seems that it is the times that we forgot about that stick out so much now. We made so many good times together, you made it tough to remember them all. For that, I thank you. Thank you for being such a good friend and inspiration-- of how to live life like there is no tommorrow. To live life as if there are no more ski jumps or driving ranges or ball diamonds to conquer.
You will never be forgotten-- not just because you still owe me one, but because I'm jealous that you are on the top of the highest, snowiest peak, just waiting to cut the perfect line on the way down.

To the Lauresen Family, i can't imagine to understand the loss you are feeling right now. For Gregg to have grown up into the man he was, he had to have been raised in a very loving and caring household. All I can really offer are my thoughts an my prayers. While I only got to meet you all a handful of times, Gregg was a good friend of mine. From the first time I met him til the last time we hung out just a few weeks ago, he always had a contagious smile and personality that wouldn't allow anybody around him to be down. I know he's looking down know with that same smile and that knowledge will allow us all to get through this. You'll be forever in my thoughts buddy and I'm gonna miss you terribly. Keep your eye on us, okay?</b></font><br><br>

Dear Gregg,
You lit up every room that you walked into. You had an amazing personality and a heart of gold. I swear that I am so lucky to have known you and have the opportunity to grow up with you all these years. My fondest memories are of us being kids when you were living on the river. All the times we went skiing at Masthope, and of course all the late night laughs. I am convinced that you were the best at everything that you did.
You were an amazing athlete and I always admired you for that. I feel as though a piece of my childhood has been taken away, and coming home will never never be the same.
I know from where you are that you will continue to bless your wonderful family, and I hope that you watch out for all of here who loved you. We have truly lost a great one, and I will miss you beyond words.
Thank you my friend, for touching my life.
Until we meet again
Love Always,

Dear Lauerson family. May god bless you all in this time of need. Gregg was a great person, whom always was upbeat, and never had anything bad to say about others. While i only know Gregg and Nick, I'm aware of Ken and Marilyn being great parents by what their kids have become. It was very saddening being one of the first people to know about Gregg's passing. I was fortunate to be able to at the very least attend the viewing, and judging by the vast amount of people attending all night, I hope you all are now even more aware of how many people's lives he touched.
Anyways, it feels like yesterday when i remember hanging out with Gregg and others. And he always brought his smile with him.
RIP Gregg, hope to see you up above.</b></font><br><br>

Greg sat next to me on graduation day at WAHS. Although I only knew him for our senior year he was an amazing person with a very warm heart. He treated those close to him with the utmost respect and would have done anything in support of his friends. I cant remember a time when Greg wasnt available to help any of his friends in need. He was a big part of my only year at Wallenpaupack and will be sorely missed by all that knew him. Rest In Peace Greg, Love is all around you. God bless the Lausersen family.

Greggie (Shrek),
From the first time i met you, a little 9 yr old brat wearing that baseball uniform at Costas, you have left a great impression on me. But what means the most to me is the impression you left on my children. You always had faith in my children and would push them alittle harder. Encouragement is what you always said. Everytime you'd come to the house John John would run to get his riding gear on so you could watch him ride the track while you mowed the lawn or you'd let him drive the mower and mess all the lines up in the lawn cause you thought it was funny! For my husband you helped him through the hard times and left him with great memories from the races to hanging out at the pond to just being there. You were and always be his best friend. And YES Greggie I will let Johnny buy that dirtbike!!! Cause as you said " John John can't be a dirtbike rider without watching and learning from his daddy." LOL!!! You always made me laugh and i will keep that in my heart forever! You will be greatly missed. Please watch over my children and protect them from harm. Greggie I love you and i'm proud to have been your friend. xoxoxo forever!!!!!
Love always and forever,

Friends come and go all the time, but great friends are very rare. If you leave this world with a handfull of great friends you have to be a very special person. Greg was an extrordinary person and a great friend of mine. I've known Greg my whole life but only became very close with him these last few years and he made these last few years some of the greatest years of my life. I'm sorry that we didn't have more time together but the time we had I will never forget and cherish forever. I would'nt say this when he was around (it's a guy thing) but Greg was one of, if not the best athlete I have ever known. That's why I loved playing softball with him and will deeply miss him, but he will always be there with me and the team helping us win. A person like Greg only comes along once in a lifetime, someone that can make you laugh just by looking at you when your in a ugly mood, someone that you can talk to about anything, and he would give you an answer and then make fun of you, but you always laughed with him because it was almost imposible not to.
I could write on this thing all day long about the good times I have had with Greg but I can't so I will leave here saying THANK YOU to Kenny and Marilyn for having such wonderful sons and an unbelieveably caring family.
I loved Greg like a brother and will miss him deeply until the day we meet again, which for him won't be long but for us it will seem like forever. Thanks for all the good times.
See ya soon Big Head,
your buddy "Sodabread"

Dear Kenny, Marilyn,Mike, Nick and family,
May you find comfort in knowing how many people share your sadness. It seems like just yesterday....Mike, Nick, Tim, and then came Greg followed by Rocky, playing in the yard, fishing... (remember the time Rocky got hooked in the head?), the hours playing in the woods, tubing down the river from your house to mine, over and over. And in the winter, the hours spent at the cemetery, or any hill they could find, walking up the hill, getting skis or snowboard on, going down, and doing it all over again. Never tiring and always with a smile. I especially remember Greg at about 4 years old, suiting up his stuffed bear in skis and trudging up the hill to let his bear ski down.
In ways big and small Greg's life changed our world. He touched too many hearts to ever be forgotten.
You have our heartfelt prayers and sympathy as Jesus holds you all in the palm of his hand.
Sincerely,
Maureen</b></font><br><br>

Gregg we shared tons of good memories. I have known you since you were a little tike. Your smile always brought light to every situation. From tug hill, the pond, to loungin on the lake after a hard work week. No mater what you helped us feel that whatever was happening it was ten times better with your smile gleaming. Your superior athletic abilities made many of us jealous. But no matter what at the end you would always give a hug and say better luck next time. It was only yesterday we had my 30th birthday and as we admiring our guts. I thought Boogie or nick would win but I believe with all your hot air you pushed that overwhelming mass out. We couldn't even beat you at being fat. But with that laugh how can anybody get mad. Your gone now but our memories with you will echo through these mountains forever.

I was deeply saddened by the news of Gregg’s passing. He was taken from this world too soon, and will be deeply missed by many. Gregg had the unique ability to make a lasting impression on anyone he met. He was always kind, funny, and most of all genuine. When people leave this world, it is not their “status” in life that will be remembered, it is the type of person they were, and how they made others feel that is remembered. That being said, I am certain that Gregg’s ability to make you smile will live on through the hearts of every one he met for many years to come.
I am sorry I will not be able to attend his services, but please know that my heat is with you all during this time.</b></font><br><br>

I remeber the night this picture was taken. I met up with Gregg, Allison and Justin at the Pines and we did our usual. Allison & I grabbed as many quarters as we could for Mega Touch while Gregg & Justin grabbed the dollars and headed to the juke box. The four of us sat in the corner, singing as loud and tone def (that be me) as we could & laughing so hard we could barely stay on our stools while Gregg begged me to stop singing. Then he found my camera and everything changed. He grabbed Justin & the 2 posed relentlessly and had me take pictures over and over til he got the perfect shot. And just like that, the oh so reliable and never changing weather changed, the snow started coming down. Being the "not the greatest" driver that I am, I started to panic and wanted nothing more than to leave double quick. And Gregg being Gregg, he offered to drive my car for me back to his house and asked me to stay there til the morning so I wouldn't have to worry. That's the kind of person that he will be remembered for. The one who was always ready to help someone and always offering them any and everything he had and making everyone who was around him feel welcome - whether he knew them or not. All I can say is thank you for you!!</b></font><br><br>

Dear Lauersen Family,
I can honestly say that Greg was "one in a million". We played indoor soccer together in middle school and I always remember trying to act tougher then I was just to show him I was not weak. I will always remember the nights at Evans house in high school because Greg was always there and ready for a good time. He always was full of laughs and made every memory I have of him full of joy. He was one of the most talented people I have ever met. It seemed as if everything he did he was good at! He will always hold a place in my heart! I am deeply sorry for your loss of such an incredible man!

When we were younger and you first met Hope, we all went skiing at Masthope. She could see you were an awesome skier and she was bad. You kept working with her even when she pleaded for you to stop because she was so embarrassed. You were so patient that day and I was so glad to see two people I loved hit it off. Your patience that day and your ability to make someone feel so comfortable, showed your heart of gold and left lasting impressions on both of us. The world is not quite as bright. Rest in Peace GL.</b></font><br><br>

Gregg was such a beautiful person, inside and out. He was everyone's best friend. It just wasn't a good time unless Gregg was there. I have known him for so long and have so many memories, memories that even now, during this tough time, can still make me smile inside. He has captured so many hearts in his life, and he will remain in those hearts for a lifetime. I know he is keeping an eye on all of us, as our guardian angel. We love you Gregg!</b></font><br><br>

What can you say? Where do you start? Gregg The boy he was. The man he became. The one that loved everyone. The one that loved life. The one that had so many girls hearts. The cutes boy in our grade. Growing up with him was one of the best things of my childhood memories. Our birthday parties days apart. He taught me so much climbing trees to chasing boy's or playing basket ball in his drive way. Gregg is the one that when you walked in and saw him you knew it would be always a fun time weither it was in P.O.T. Class or Power Mach or playing in the kitchen area in kindergarten or at one of the basket ball games or even just tell telling stories one night oaround Nick and Lori's table and him telling to stop and be quite cause Ken and Mar were there. Gregg was the one that always was happy to be where he was. Gregg was the one with the smile on his face he was the one that you could always turn to. Ken and Mar it is because of you that your son was so loved by all. It was you who raised him to be the person he was and still is in our hearts. You open your arms to all his friends and love as all like your own. Your family has always been so great to me through all the years and the memories I have with Gregg will never fade I feel like it was only yesterday that is how clear the memories of Gregg and I when we were younger. Gregg will for ever be with us until we can join him up in heaven. I will Miss him and always wish he was here in body not just in spirt.</b></font><br><br>

To lose someone who had such a positive impact on so many people's life is a great shame. His big smile, great attitude and contagious laugh will be missed by many. As memories that seem like yesterday fill our head, I will always remember the great times I shared with Greg. From the young, goofy kids on the ball field, to growing up and helping each other with life's stuggles, Greg was a person you could always count on. He will truly be missed, but always remembered as a great friend and a great person.</b></font><br><br>

it can be so debilitating to be so far away. when I heard the news I was confused... then when it was clear, I thought "no, little greggy". Moving away early on has prevented me from allowing many of those guys to grow up. Which leads to even greater shock and dismay at such news. My heart has been twisted in angst all week long. May the love of your family and all those in your community, who hold you so dear, pull you through this difficult time.</b></font><br><br>

At last I reach my final home
The gates swing open wide
I get a glimpse of glory
I can't wait to get inside.
An angel beckons to me
I hurry up to him
He opens up a golden book
And lets me look within.
I see my name is written
On the page that he turns to
He says you finally made it
I've been waiting here for you.
He points in one direction
And tells me "go that way"
So I start my tour of heaven
The place I get to stay.
I see the many mansions
And walk the streets of gold
And hear the angels praising God
Just like I had been told.
And then I spot my loved ones
They've been here many years
We hug and kiss each other
All smiles, there are no tears.
I look around for Jesus
I know He'll soon appear
I want to kneel and praise Him
He's the reason I am here.
He took upon Himself my sins
He paid the price for me
And by His victory over death
He finally set me free.
Free from all my worldly sins
And the evil Satan sent
Jesus came into my heart
Because I did repent.
I'll finally get to thank Him
When I bow before His throne
For all the times He carried me
When I couldn't walk alone.
I'll dwell with Him in heaven
With no sorrow, tears or pain
This was His promise to me
When to this earth He came.
There are many mansions up here
There's room for all of you
So to join us all in heaven
I'll tell you what to do.
Accept Jesus as your Savior
He will wash your sins away
He's waiting here to greet you
When you join us here one day.
-Gregg is one of the most wonderful people I have ever known. I wish we all could have him here with us forever but God took him for a reason. I will always love you, his family, and I will always love Gregg.-Abby</b></font><br><br>

Your son filled my entire life with love, happiness and just made me whole. I will never forget anyday i spent with Gregg. His smile was sooo contagious, his life was sooo incomplete. I send to you, my other family the deepest regrets and I am so sorry. He never said a bad thing about anyone. I myself could never say anything bad about him.

Gregg was one of my closest friends, and I will always remember our ski trip to Norway, ice skating, playing baseball together, hitting golf balls, and all of the other great memories we shared. I was always so envious of how good he was at everything he tried, and how effortlessly things came to him. He was a tremendous athlete, but more importantly a tremendous person. You can add me to the infinite list of people that will always remember him fondly. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.</b></font><br><br>

We can not begin to imagine the depths of your grief. Gregg's sudden and tragic death has touched many and may you somehow find comfort in knowing that.
With so much energy and intense love of life, Gregg should have lived a long and rewarding life filled with much joy and the laughter of friends. Instead we say goodbye at twenty-four and shake our heads sadly not knowing the words to express our sadness.
We will remember Gregg as he is portrayed in the picture you have posted. Enjoying the moment, smiling and happy, surrounded by friends and family and knowing he was loved.

To All Parents
by Edgar Guest
"I'll lend you for a little time a child of mine," He said.
"For you to love the while he lives and mourn when he is dead,
"It may be six or seven years, or twenty-two or three,
"But will you, till I call him back, take care of him for me?
"He'll bring his charms to gladden you, but should his stay be brief,
"You'll have his lovely memories, as solace for your grief,
"I cannot promise he will stay, since all from earth return,
"But there are lessons taught down there I want this child to learn.
"I've looked the wide world over in my search for teachers true,
"And from the throngs that crowd life's lanes I have selected you.
"Now will you give him all your love, nor think the labor vain,
"Nor hate me when I come to call to take him back again?
I fancied that I heard them say: "Dear Lord, Thy will be done!
"For all the joy Thy child shall bring, the risk of grief we'll run.
We'll shelter him with tenderness; we'll love him while we may,
And for happiness we've known forever grateful stay.
"But should the angels call for him much sooner than we'd planned,
"We'll brave the bitter grief that comes and try to understand."
Gregg was a dear friend to both of us and he will be greatly missed. The news of the accident has affected Adam and I greatly. We will not be able to make it back for the funeral from CO, but we have been grieving heavily and will continue to. The world has lost a great one and he will never be forgotten!

I have found that, for characteristics that are totally unique, there are those people who by their very nature, are special.. they are warm, caring, and make everyone around them feel completely comfortable. The Lauersen family is exactly that. I have always felt a closeness to Ken and Marilyn, and through our association, to their family. I cannot fathom the loss that you are experiencing with your son's passing, but I truly hope it is of some comfort to know that there are many, many people who love and respect you all, and in doing so, share in your loss, and want you to know that you and your entire family are in our thoughts and prayers.</b></font><br><br>

Dear Lauerson Family and friends,
I pray that you will have family and friends to listen as you share your memories of Gregg and that you can listen as they share their memories.
I remember the amazing athlete, but most of all I remember the amazing warmth in his eyes which came straight from his heart. I remember baseball days, days on out trampolene, and Gregg catching frogs and turtles for Rachel in the Lackawaxen River. REMEMBERED JOYS ARE NEVER PAST.
Talking about our loved ones is a way of keeping them close, bringing them home. Gregg's okay, God's got him. He's gone to a better place, recognize the joy in which he is now living and realize he's just around the corner, on the other side. Know that you are his "love" as surely as he is yours; or more surely, since he loves now more purely than we.
One thing that has helped me since my husband, LeRoy, passed is knowing that I don't have to get over it. I pray that I grow accustomed to missing him, but I will always miss him, and love him. While we don't have our "loves" anymore, we did have them.
I wish for you the great courage to hurt, to let your grief out, to feel your sadness and pain, and, in your time, the greater courage to heal.
"You've a well inside you filled to the brim with your grief, and every time you really cry, you empty the well out. But the well fills again, and you must repeat and repeat the emptying out process. The level of sorrow in your "well" lessens as time passes, but never runs dry, and there are always birthdays, holidays, those most-sorrowful special days when the well fills to the brim as at the beginning. And the main thing you can do to get yourself through these special occasions is to: weep, sob, lament at the top of your lungs." Do what is good for you.
We are so sorry...

Mine was on your birthday and it was a blast you taught me to climb trees that day. My favorite part that I always think of is the water balloon fight which turned in to a muddy one because it was so warm and the snow we just had gotten had melted.

Last night was very difficult for your friends and family. We were all together so it made it a little easier, by spreading your love around.
I would ask the rain-
to make that sound all
night-
if it always brought
me to-
you.-
I can’t taste the coffee-
in the bottom of
my cup.-
It’s too cold-
and the smell isn’t-
enough.-
I would erase time-
if a ticket you’d be allowed-
in order to join us for one
last-
dinner, oh, what would you eat?

Boy Greggy it has been a year. It sure doesn’t feel that way at all the memories still so vivid. The day it happened, the days that followed. The questions why? The emptiness inside. The feeling that you get when you walk in some where realizing that you aren’t going to be there; looking at the door when it opens and knowing that you aren’t the one walking through it. The days haven’t gotten any easier everyone one just has to deal and remember that you live in all of us. We are the one here that keep you alive. You touched so many people with your smile, your laugh or your way that you would & could always reassure people that everything would be ok. Greggy you will be in my heart forever and hope you smile when you glance over me from time to time. I will always cherish the childhood memories that we had growing up from the mud fight, pin the tale on the donkey, tanglwood to napping in power mach. I mean after all you were the one who got me to run so fast with all the tag games we use to play in the playground. I guess now I am it and will catch you some day and can’t wait. One last thing Greggy thank you for being the one that didn’t choose sides.

Hi Gregg, ya little stinker! We all are still missing you and loving you. Ken and Mar, this is the anniversary of your baby son's birth into heaven. I have been with you, we all still ache. It snowed today here I thought of Gregg as I brushed my car to go to work this morning. I know he liked the snow. Although it has been a year it seens so much longer, so much has happened. I love you all and you are in my strongest prayers. Aunt Geri

Hey Greggy,
there is this song i just heard the title is " I wasn't a friend"
Some of the lyrics go like this.
This is a mistake
This is not some pre-ordained fate
You should be here
Instead of an endless ocean of tears
(Chorus)
If I could turn back just one day
I'd give anything to make it that way
Id take the keys from your hand and I'd make sure you stayed
Instead I let you drive away
I wasnt a friend yesterday.
I dont understand
How I let this happen to you
No one will forget
Your life will matter, this message they'll get
(Chorus)
If I could turn back just one day
Id give anything to make it that way
Id take the keys from your hand and I'd make sure you stayed
Instead I let you drive away
I wasnt a friend yesterday.
There wont be the good old days
Or your grown kids to praise
I cant make friends with grief
I dont know how I'll find relief
that was it.
I so wish I could go back and would have gone out that night. I miss you Greggy you are in my thoughts everday always & forever.

Dear Gregg,
It has been 5 months and still it feels like yesterday. I am not sure if I will ever understand why you were needed so soon. I do know how I feel and how there is an emptness inside. Everyday I miss you and everyday I wish I could run into you somewhere; like it was all just one of my bad dreams, but I know I can't what I do have though are all the memories of the 20 years that you were in my life. Though you still are now but only in spirt. I love you miss you and can't wait to see you again.

It has been one month since the accident. The day that shocked this town. One month ago today was the day that every really knew you weren't coming back. YOur resting day. It has been one month since your passing and yet it feels like yesterday. Everyday I think what if like I am sure everyone does. I honestly have not been out since you have left Gregg I guess it is because I will always be think that you will pass through the door. I don't want to have the realization that your not. Everyday I think of you and hope you are looking over us. Everyday I miss you and everyday I want to go see your mom and yet I am scared too. You are the one person who could say something and make everything ok. Gregg you will forever be in my heart. I miss you and wish to see you again.

A memory I wanted to share. I finally spoke with Marilyn tonight, I'm glad I called. I was thinking about the time you guys invited us up to Shawnee to ski years ago. My Joey, not Aunt Mary's Joey but my Joey had never been on skis before. We went over to the learners hill, Gregg was there. The next thing I know Gregg had Joey up on the ski lift to the top of the hill, my heart was in my throat. I was screaming Gregg! Gregg! Joey has never skied before! God Bless Gregory, he got Joey down the hill safely, teaching him how to do the "Pizza Wedge" my little son made it down the hill. Most of my memories are of Gregg when he was really little, I have to think a little harder of him as older.</b></font><br><br>

I was supposed to go and see him the week Gregg died and his words were, " you have to go to Ken and Marilyn, they were always so good to you." I wanted to call you guys but I am having a hard time doing that, I know I will cry and I will make you cry, know I love you and your children with all my heart and your little grandbaby Joey, I see Charmaine frequently at Eckert Drug where she works and we were talking about what happened. We also figured how loved you are due to the fact that Judy, her and I were all there for Gregg. What does that say, you just can't keep us away no matter what! You are loved so much!

Happy so belated Birthday Greggy, Sorry so late this year but as you know I went away this year for our birthday on your birthday, I can’t believe we are 41 this year. We did Alaska for our fun adventure it was so great the lights, They were really cool to see (I think you helped with having them show every night at least that is what I believe) and dog sledding was and experience for sure. All was cold but not as cold as you would think other then when the wind was going. That was no fun at all. I have been thinking about you a lot lately, and realizing you have a big crowd around you now, so many of the people we know are with you instead of down here living life. I just picture you all sitting aroud a fire and telling stories/ watching as all down here like a soap opera or reality tv show. I know God always has his reason for everything that happens, the people you meet the people who he calls home. I really wish he wouldn’t have called you home so early. Anyway after getting back from Alaska which by the way you would have loved it up there in person but I felt you there with me a few times. I went skiing at Killington again like last year so fun with the group I go with always remind me of Tanglewood and how you would drive me crazy up there. Please keep watching over us as you do, miss you and that smile.

Happy Belated Birthday Greggy,
I know I am so late this year. We are 40... I missed you a lot this year especially the week of our birthdays. I had intentions to do what I do most years but People got in my head and made me not want to do anything for it. I know it's not me. The week leading up to it honestly, I just felt like I didn’t belong anywhere and my excitement that I usually have wasn’t there not because we were turning 40 but more the realization that in just a few more I will be celebrating the same number without you here as I did with you. The best day was going to dinner with your mom and niece and when we got back, we talked about you. You are always so vivid to me like you were just next to me yesterday. Your smile your laugh and how you would get me in trouble or just do the silly things like when we were young. I cherish those moments and hope they never fade away. By the way, that person I was spending time with and I are over I think for good. Not what I want but we don’t always get what we want and the weird thing even though I know it’s probably for the best I still feel like we are meant to be. (So many little signs from you it seemed like it was for real this time with them) So, despite that our birthday week wasn’t so fun for me the adventure (always trying to do one) was going to Killington for the first time and not really knowing anyone that was going. It was so great; it was such great people that were so awesome and encouraging. Hope you had a good one up in heaven miss you lots. One last thing my uncle joined you a few days after our birthdays can you keep an eye on him for me. I am sur he is happy to be with the love of his life after all these years but he could still use some looking out for. xoxo

Happy Birthday, Greggy,
I know I am so late this year; it has been a year, to say for the books is an understatement. The world just stopped, not being able to hug or gather with the ones you care about; we lost a whole year of our lives (Lockdowns, Covid Virus, Isolation, resorting in many with depression/suicide). Not so much fun but definitely realizations. I have gone to write you a few times in the last week, but my mind is all over the place with what I want to say(still is as I write this). I want to talk about the boy I call him Batman, the one who broke the glass and cleaned it up like you did the milk, so I took it as a sign. (not sure if it’s meant to be; we have become more distant lately(started with Covid) mom getting diagnosed with cancer (Scary). For the last year was a test I would say to so many and a realization of what people and things matter most. For me, it was the realization and that even though I knew time is precious and life is short; it was Relationships that I have missed for years I was afraid to reach out to but deciding to and it being the best thing, one was your Family—wishing them a happy birthday as I do just wasn’t enough anymore. I missed them, the positiveness, the love, the real. Your Family has been such a big part of why I think like I do, and in so many ways, I wanted them back in my life. And as your Family always is, they were glad to see me. I got to go camp; it was literally the best time(got bruised up; some still have but worth everyone). Being around your mom, I don’t think I can put into words how I feel when I am around your mom. She always has this way to make me feel so loved and special, like the car accident day, and we were all going to the hospital together in the ambulance( her words I will never forget). Well, she did it again a few weeks ago at the Pole Barn Gathering Someone asked if I was her daughter, and she said that would be a compliment which in return again made me feel so unbelievably special again. It is so nice to talk about you too. Anyway, For our birthdays this year, I went skiing with McCloskey in the morning and had dinner with Lori, then Icecream with Lori and your Neice Samantha. Skiing was nice, but dinner was so great. We talked, and I cried a little, but the conversation was so real and raw. Icecream was fun; listening to Samantha talk had us chuckling(she was shocked I had makeup on her expression was the best). No big celebration like a few years ago it couldn’t happen thanks to covid. But honestly, dinner was so much better. Then on your day, I skied with Nick and your nephew John. It was so great, Really the best way to celebrate you doing what you loved to do (like I did for our 29th or 30th Sking, hockey game, and playing in the wood). John reminds me of you when we were little. (his excitement, his mannerisms, and his smile) I know you have welcomed a few more up there with you. I sometimes wonder what you all are doing up there but what I really believe and know is that you are watching over all of us, and I hope you are smiling that big smile that you have.

Happy Birthday a bit late. Sorry, it has been crazy down here, I am sure you know that though. We are 38 now, this year was a low key one but really the best low key I have ever had. The person I spend time with made dinner got me the best card! There was so much thought into they got my favorite cake Ice Cream Cake and we played Wii Bowing I won of course. It was so nice to be low key. The following night I went out to dinner with Bonny we celebrate it every year since but this year her restaurant was closed the day of, so we went to a nice Italian restaurant in Narrowsburg. So it was a nice one this year but still, wish you were here always. It didn't snow much this year what was up with that. I hope you had a nice one celebrating up there and if you could watch over us all; I am sure you are keeping us safe with the coronavirus that is going on.

Hey Greggy, So last night I swear you were sending me a sign. I was at someone’s house and they broke a glass in the cabinet and part fell onto the counter and the floor, so they took the broom swept the floor then put the broom on the counter and used it to clean the counter, Just like you did when we were little with the chocolate milk in the lunchroom with the mop. I was laughing and crying all at then same time. Of course the person thought I was crazy. But I still took it as a sign from you saying you like this person for me. I miss you pal. I think of you so often and I know your keeping watch over all of us and welcoming everyone who leaves us. xxxx

Unfortunately every year there are so many people who we grew up with joining you. I woke up today sad, I’m not sure why but this year it’s harder, don’t get me wrong its never easy but today was one of the worse. I miss you and that smile. I do hope you’re looking down and smiling. I know you’re always with each of us especially when we need you. Night Greggy

Happy birthday Greggy! We are 36 this year. It's been 12 now without you. It honestly still sucks, but this year it was low key sorry for that. I did one shot of tequila for our birthday, and went to Philadelphia to the flower show. I now it wouldn't have been your cup of tea but it was beautiful. There isn't a day I don't think about you. I miss your smile. To be little again playing tag in the mud and climbing trees on our birthday parties. There is a verse in the bible Proverbs 17:17 that when I read it made me think of you. "A friend love at all times And a brother is born for adversity". Better explained in The Message " Friends love through all kinds of weather, and families stick together in all kinds of trouble". You were a friend to everyone no judging and you stuck by no matter what. Anyway I am getting all sappy so I will just say happy 36th Birthday In heaven Greggy Love and Miss you dearly but cherish the 20 Birthday and so many moments we did share together. Hope your having a great time up there and I am sure you welcomed our friend to the party a few weeks ago.

Happy Birthday Greggy!!! We are officially 35 !! I know I am so late this year. I'm sorry. It was by far an awesome weekend though for it. Thank you for my wonderful gift on my day. I was so excited to see it snowing when I woke up.I felt it was you saying that it was going to be a great one and it was for the first time since you passing it was a great one.. the only thing better would be if you were there. We got like 3 feet of snow right after You would have loved to be skiing and playing in all the snow,, it reminded me of the year that it snowed so much right before our birthdays and you had yours on mine right after school and mine was on the Sunday which was your day it got so warm that we had snow/mudd fight at my house you also taught me how to climb trees that year. It has been thirty years since our first birthday together. Anyway you would be proud of me for our 34th year I did some pretty cool things like swam and kissed a sting ray( yes the guy Steve died by one but it was one of the best experiences ever) and swam with some sea turtles. I tried some great tequila while in Mexico the first time had some more the next time I went promise only one shot each time I was good. I also started working for myself. It was my year of yes going out and doing things I would normally say no to, That is something you wouldn't do you would always say yes.I admired that with you. This past year I have felt your presents more then ever and I think that is what has helped me though so many things. There isn't a day that I don't think of you and wish you were here even though we weren't always close and sometimes you would drive me crazy as I know I am sure I did the same. No matter what I would always be there for you if you needed me and you would have too. lately when I sleep I have been seeing us when we were young like Kindergarten, 2sd and 3rd grade so vividly. ( Plastic egg spitting, spill of the Chocolate milk and me giving you your valentines gift) like it was just yesterday. Not really sure what that means but I like it. Anyway I am sure you busy up there watching all of us down here. Hope your smiling and laughing I so miss your smile. Love and miss you always and forever.

Sorry Greggy it has taken me a couple more days then I thought to write to you. There are so many thoughts going thru my head but there all jumbled. So I hope this makes some sense. It has been 10 years since that call. The nightmare coming true. It’s been 10 years half the amount of time we were in each other’s lives, half the Birthday half the time that we were celebrating all our milestones. You may have drove me crazy at moments in those 20 years but you were always there when I needed a friend. I would love to have those years/ moments again even the ones where you made me upset. but that can't happen but I do feel your presents with me all the time especially when I am doing some adventure from swimming with the turtles and sting rays or rock climbing and skydiving or cruising alone. I know that you’re always there watching over me I just feel you I can’t explain it but I do. You push me sometimes when I am scared just like you did when we were younger. I meet a person from Romania that reminds me of you and they said something that is struck me “you live everyday but only die once” It’s what you did you lived everyday you took chances and were always up for anything and everything. You are that saying. I am working on being more like that. I go thru times when I am , but wish I could be more unfortunately responsibilities put a damper on it. Well I have taken enough of your time. I miss you everyday and think of you at least twice a day. Hope to see you again but not to soon. xoxo

Happy Birthday Greggy!!! We turned 34 this year. It's now been 9 birthdays with out you and 10 years since the last time I heard you wish me Happy birthday, oh how I miss your voice. I meet someone new on my birthday and they knew you so we chatted about you it was nice. I kept this year pretty low key. You have a new friend to hang out with up.( I'm sure you know and welcomed them with your big smile and one of your hugs) I wish you were still here though there isn't a day that you don't cross my mind. Adventure for this year is still the same as last since I was in a car accident 3 weeks after our birthday week and am just finally get back to about 90% so now I have to do two things one is fly boarding but not sure what the other will be yet when I find something I will be sure to let you know.

I have had 9 birthdays to celebrate without you (it still stinks) But I Know you are here next to me looking out for me with all the crazy things I do (like jump out a perfectly good airplane) I wish you were but since I can't bring you back I just celebrate every year I'm here by doing something adrenaline rushing.

It was far to soon but I know you are watching over all of us and laughing when you see were funny and you are their when we need to talk. The memories I keep with me in my heart and my mind everyday. And there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about you and wish I would see you again. I know I will sometime in the future. love you always have and always will since the first day in Kindergarten. xoxo
