    I hope he knew how many of us were impressed with his comments … especially on shows. His post even got me to go to some shows after years of avoiding them, and I'm glad I did.

    Very sad to hear of his passing. He seemed to be the type of person who truly enjoyed his life. RIP

    Rest in Peace Greg. You'll be missed around here for sure. Your insights were always valued at a premium.

    If anything, I've learned that I shouldn't delay in thanking those who've helped me. I missed the chance of thanking Greg when he posted about his illness a while back. Now its too late. I hope one day he can advise us all on the best seats in the clouds.

    I'm so sorry to hear about Greg's passing. My condolences to his family. It's good to hear that he didn't suffer, thanks for sharing his brother's email.

    I loved Gregrio's passion for Vegas and this
    Message board.
    I think, I read everything he ever wrote --
    always informative.
    He was a "cornerstone" here.
    I am very sorry for his passing + his family's loss.

    I never met Greg, but have enjoyed and respected his posts. I think we exchanged some personal PMs at one time. Amazing how emotional I am over someone I never met in person. I read this a few minutes ago and tried to scan the rest of the boards, and find myself unable to.

    When he posted a few months back about his illness, I was really hoping he would not suffer long.

    Thanks Greg.
