Traveling up the Mississippi River near Cape Girardeau. The dredge in the photo is on the move upriver. The river is so shallow there are two dredges working it between St. Louis and Cairo right now.

Greg has left us……
There are no words.
Kind, smart, skillful, loving, and many others might help to describe Greg.
There is nothing that will ever even remotely come close to my loss.
However, he made sure to give me the strength to continue without him. He told me that I would need to have twice the fun. Any offers to help me with that are welcome.
Thank you for your prayers. Many have already been said.
Greg will be cremated. His ashes will be in the river, ocean, ground, air, trees, add more. There won’t be a public service, but likely a celebration of his life sometime next year.
Click here to watch the video for some advice that we can all use.
We love you!
Greg & Glenn
