Greg See and I served in the USAF back in the 70’s. We entered the military on the same day and became great friends and roommates during our time in service. Another roommate and friend named Ken Aliff and I have looked for Greg for a long time and am truly sorry to finally locate him this way. He was unbelievable fun during my time around him and I will truly miss having a conversation to catch up on things before his transition. To his daughters and family please know that you have two “uncles” in Ken and I that you haven’t met but we cared deeply for your wonderful Dad. Please tell his Mom that I said hello. I met her once while Greg was on vacation. May my friend Greg rest in peace.

I just thought that one of the things I admired about my double first cousin was that he always made time to contact and answer questions even if they were from other crafts. His approach was that of a laid back 60’s era person. I can’t count the number of times I would see him sleeping in hallways between college classes with the contract on the top of the pile. He also instilled in me that the contract is just a small point of contention as you need to understand and apply the handbooks and manuals to be most effective. I urge locals to set up groups to study the many manuals that apply. Rest in Peace cousin because your shoulders carried a very large load in work and family.
