Greg was an irascible character and a true Traveller fan who never hesitated to inject his own opinions into a discussion or, just as likely, an argument. He was an impressive person who overcame numerous life challenges. He was one of the few Trav authors who spanned the majority of Traveller's versions and editions, having come in as a published author on the Classic Traveller floor and made his way all of the way to T5. He championed many of the ideas that were published in the T5 Core Rules, was an active member of the Inner Circle, helped to put the Ursa on the map, was a member of the HIWG, and was close to publishing his own Traveller novel before he left this world (…FFE hopes to publish his novel in the near future, rather than the far one). Whatever Greg was or wasn't, Greg was a true Traveller with the Traveller Gene, and he'll be missed by many. Rest in Peace, Greg.
