About Gregory

   Sarasota High School is missing a senior this year with a mischievous grin, our son, Gregory.  He was athletic, strong, highly competitive, and fun-loving. He loved many sports (baseball, football, golf, soccer, basketball, bowling, surfing, and wrestling) and played some form of sport until 10th grade. 

    As a sophomore, he gave up school sports to become involved in our new family business.  He was hardworking and a quick learner who showed a natural knack for working with people.  Our customers loved his lighthearted nature and how he went that extra mile to be kind or helpful.  As parents, we were afforded the opportunity to spend 20 hours a week with him at the store as he enthusiastically worked and learned about the business.

    We were fortunate to have this time with him and never dreamed it could all end in an evening out with friends at a birthday party.  We now treasure the memories and photographs.  Gregory, loved spending time with his nephews, Matthew (2 ½ years) and Devin (8 months) and showed patience as he played t-ball, golf, and frolicked in the pool with them.  Gregory and his father would often sneak off on a Sunday afternoon for a game of golf, a passion they both shared.  His presence and humorous outlook on life is sorely missed.
