To all the many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends, Thank You for your friendship & support, and to St. Michael's Care Centre support staff, nurses and doctors for the wonderful care given to him.

Greg was a character and a half, having a unique sense of humor and a quick wit.  He was a talented person, as he had a never-ending ability to fix things.  We will remember Greg for his love of his pets (especially Piper), his love of family and his love for looking for treasures.  He was always looking for gold at the end of the rainbow.

Cremation, with a family service to be held at a later date.  In memory of Greg, please consider making a donation to St. Michael's Care Centre, the Alzheimer Society of Alberta or a charity of your choice.
