How about a motivating tidbit from the past. It is like he never left...
I could be living in a cardboard box behind a dumpster and have more class in my morning stool than you've ever, or ever will have.
Lemme repeat something, if you ever repeated what you said here about my Mom (someone that a LOT of the members here knew, as well) to my face, I'd cut your tongue out, and feed it to the Coyotes.

Ha! Classic CFO material. A few months back I sent Greg and DD some prose I knew they'd both enjoy and appreciate, which they did. In that same correspondence I invited them both to come here and be my guests for as short or as long as they liked, with as much fishing and whiskey and fresh seafood they could stand. Both thanked me for the offer and stated that timing for this summer past wouldn't work but that they'd both revisit the invitation in the future. I am most saddened that the visit never came to be. DD, open offer stands to you. Of the countless gem quality CFO responses, one in particular stands above them all in my mind. Some fool had made a disparaging remark combined with a loose threat directed at Greg's beloved Gracie after Greg posted a pic of her. Greg was on the guy like Gracie on a crippled roadrunner and said something like, 'I'll PM you my address, mister, and will make it a point to be waiting for your arrival should your actions actually back up your cowardly words, but know this: if you get here and even so much as LOOK at my dog in a threatening manner, so help me I'll burn you *alive*. Look for PM" Godspeed, Jefe.

We will have a service at the February Tonto, az camp, it may be short or long depending on how many want to say something.
Right now nothing is happening, still waiting for the fiduciary to do their job.

It's about like this:
"Do you puff peters?"
"Hell no!"
"NAZI!!!"

Greg and I talked about falling block's and rolling blocks. He did a beautiful job of converting a stock to fit a Favorite I was building. Bristoe readily donated a tool he needed to complete the job. I sent him some odds and ends now an then as I was giving up my 'smithing doings as my hands got too bad to keep up.He sent me a book (Old Wolfville) he traded some black powder for cases of and we often referred to it in posts.
Greg will be seriously missed by me like many of the others here that have passed on.
Keep shooting the big BP boomers Sir, keep the Angels on their toes. He sent me a copy of Old Wolfville also. And... as you mentioned... he would refer to it now and again to make a point. I kinda think he’s looking down and getting a kick out of how this thread about his passing has outed so many worthless priiicks. I too received a copy of Old Wolfville from Greg a few years back. Gotta look it up... it's somewhere in my bookshelves.
