DonInReno Posted March 24, 2021 Report Posted March 24, 2021 Gregg was generous to those around him, a likable person in all dealings I’ve had, and genuinely enjoyed helping people. A good soul. RIP my friend. Quote
Members Joon1911 Posted March 24, 2021 Members Report Posted March 24, 2021 Bob, thanks for sharing, that’s so unfortunate. I’ve always enjoyed the input Gregg has always added to the conversations here at LW.net Quote "Make every product better than its ever been done before. Make the parts you cannot see as well as the parts you can see. Use only the best materials, even for the most everyday items. Give the same attention to the smallest detail as you do to the largest. Design every item you make to last forever." -Shaker Philosophy of Furniture Making
