He and his dog were found dead at the same time? Or are you guys saying his dog passed and then crossfire did shortly thereafter?

I’ve thought about Greg a lot recently because his absence was truly felt and his opinions and ass chewings were missed. I should know by this time in my life what those gut instincts meant and wish I’d have been a little more proactive with my concern. It breaks my heart something terrible to think of Greg and Gracie alone-together in death....while at the same time the same thought brings me a measure of comfort.
I’m not ashamed to admit that this loss has me tearful this rainy morning and even more so as I better understand the dream I had last night. The young boy in last nights dream on a big ship running from deck to deck and laughing is finally free from his mortal bonds and I think heaven just got a lot more fun and interesting.
Fair winds and following seas my friend, until we meet again....

RIP Greg and Gracie. Greg was a true free thinker, I didn't always agree w/ his opinions but learned over time that they were based on real knowledge and genuine critical thinking. After a difference on this site he took the time to PM me w/ valid info and a list of books and other sources that I investigated. My bookshelf now holds several volumes that, to me, illustrate the depth and experience of a genuine man of the world.
Your friends here are a testament to a life not wasted.

Dave I’d sure like to get some of these types of details.

Well, Ma used to say that if you cant say something nice, shut yer gawtdamn mouth.
Did not know the man, he probably yelled at me a few times during my short time here.....I just cant recall them.
RIP
I think it says a lot about a place, or a group of people, that would take the time to check in on an internet friend or acquaintance if they have not heard from him in a while.
Pretty comforting really. I told me wife what she needs to do to keep getting my pension if I should die tomorrow. 1) Throw my body in pond 2) Logon to the 'Fire at least twice a week and post 'Blow me' in a few threads. 3) Repeat 2 for years and years. Make sure she throws in a few "your Mother is a dumb cunny" Be a damn shame to leave out your signature piece.

Greg was an uncommon man with uncommon abilties. He could DO stuff, he didn't bullchit, and he was true to his word. Ain't too many left like him.

I had to chuckle at some of these fine postings, Cross could indeed be a hot head. PM'd me once and handed me my ass until I explained my thinking more clearly..
He halfway apologized *grin* and we moved on as friends. It was just his rawhide way.
And nobody I know has more passion about the ridiculous state of our border than he had!

it would be good for all of the rdrshp here at the fire if someone(s) in the know posted an obit, death report from the sheriff's office, funeral notice, whatever would be helpful to help provide closure. a man of his stature needs to be fully eulogized.

A man's man of considerable and broad experience, knowledge, and talent. Strains of colorful curmudgeon. Many have said it well already. Someone we learned from, in varied ways. Would have been richer for having met the fellow in person, that is certain. RIP Cross and Gracie. You two are missed and remembered.

Dave I’d sure like to get some of these types of details. I would love to know the facts as well,I suspect Greg died and without a care giver the 15 year dog would not last very long without food or water. Or just maybe she died from a broken heart when she lost her master.

Cross AND Gracie? What the hell happened? Murder/suicide wouldn't surprise me. The interactions I had with Greg via PM and on the forum were very negative, he was a loudmouthed [bleep] with an anger problem. A MAN with any brains or nuts, if he had such thoughts, would keep them to himself. Screw you, Greg was an azzhole. I don't mourn his passing. You screwed you for this forum. On to ignore for the ignoramus.

speculation is likely to run rampant until some sort of official report is released. it could have been a variety of causes, all speculation at this point.
