Lisa and family, I’m so very sorry to hear of your loss. I knew Greg from my workplace (maybe met him only 5-6 times); but what I remember is he always had a smile on his face. I pray for peace for all of you, during this most difficult time. Roxanne Cash
I am very grateful that I had the privilege of knowing you. You were a great mentor and friend and I always knew I could call you if I needed help or advice. I will always remember you and I will always cherish the memories and the knowledge that you gave me. Rest In Peace Greg Josh Seaver
Greg will certainly be missed , he made us feel welcomed any time we were around him ,we shared a sarcastic humor that gave me some of the best laughs in my life. We love him.
A good man gone, but not forgotten.
Greg was definitely a major father figure in my life. He was so welcoming to me, in the family! When I needed a place to live, he was more than happy to welcome me into his home! We always shared the same sarcastic/dry sense of humor! I couldn’t imagine my life with out him and honestly can say I wouldn’t be who I am today with out him! I sure will miss him! Thank you for raising the most important man in my life, I love you Greg! You were the best father-in-law a girl could ask for!
