I am a cousin of greg's and younger than him. I always looked up to him and thought he was cool - like I wanted to be. I remember: being at his house in MD playing hide and seek and flashlight tag, and him playing with cars or trains; he had a cool bedroom for a kid; the smile that lit up his eyes when he had something funny planned and we didn't know what it was yet; going to the water slide in Ocean City, MD and riding all the slides together; him at my sister's birthday in July when he was little; greg being uncomfortable being the only boy cousin at family get togethers for a while until reid came along and how happy he was to have a boy cousin. It's that genuine smile that I remember most. greg was a man with seemingly unlimited potential.
