April 10, 2021 10:39 PMI knew Greg because he was best friends with my cousin Morrey Capicotte who lived on John Street in Loves Park, Illinois and he was often over at Morrey's house. He was always a gentleman to me and so nice. I remember the deer antler pipes he so artfully designed and produced. Many, many years later, when I returned to Rockford to live after a long absence, he and my husband had occasion to interact since my husband worked at a state park and Greg would have business there. That was quite the coincidence and blast from our pasts. I knew that he had moved to Florida and was sick but didn't know he went to Texas. Greg was just a quiet, fun, nice man and we have very fond memories of him. May he rest in peace. Condolences to his family and peace to you all at this sad time.
