Dan, I am truly, deeply sorry for the loss of your friend and fellow writer. I know a bit about loss and how it can take a while for the feelings to set in—heck, I'm still feeling the feels right now. Give yourself time to breathe and to be, and honor Greg as you should, by writing when you are ready to.

In Greg's honor, I've decided to pick up my virtual pen and dip it into the inkwell of my mind and put together a remembrance of my own for a person who was dear to me. Thank you so very much for being the final spur to cause me to do so. Sometimes, I suppose all it takes is someone else to show me the way.

Thank you for writing this. It is absolutely spot on and I seem to be at a loss for words right now. It made me break down in tears yet again, realizing that the everyday presence in my life is gone. I can only hope he has joined his love...💔
