pieces of furniture that were so loving refinished by your son
My antiques that were so beautifully refinished by Greg will be a constant reminder to our family how artistic , creative and loved he is.
My heart breaks to hear this very sad news. Giant bear hugs to all of you–Angie, Mark, Linda and Big G. The odd thing is that even during such a terrible tragedy, I cannot think of Greg Ultican for even five seconds without smiling. I never knew a sweeter someone with such an easy smile and so quick to laugh. From second grade to 60, I literally cannot picture him without a smile. He’s an unforgettable guy who brought so much joy to so many people–not a bad legacy to leave, I’d say. Peace and love to all his family. I am so sorry.
Dear Linda and Gary, so sorry to hear about your loss of Greg. Losing a child at any age is devastating. I hope time and care from your friends will give you some peace.
