Prost! We promised each other a beer once, never got to deliver. A missed opportunity for sure.

It was fun! I was trying to be quite responsible, but when you chased down that motorcycle and cleared the way... no doubt the Super Coupe definitely has the speed!

Looking forward to seeing you and everyone one else for a Mountain run this spring!
Game on!

While in the food line I counted 65 people and after getting my food and moving outside I found at least 6 that I had missed. Sooooo, Greg had a great turn out, for a great guy that really deserved it. He will be missed by us all.

We had a great time. It's always nice to see old friends, make some new ones and hang out with some like minded people. Greg had a great group of friends from very different hobbies and life experiences and everyone got a long famously.

Huge thanks to Paul for hosting this, the hanger and surrounding eye candy (Planes) were a great setting. All around great time.

Anyone remember what kind of Tequila that was?

















I brought the wrong Coooors

Super Super nice people!!! I had a great time and being with Greg and all his friends was special to say the least.

Paul thank you for allowing us to spend time at your hanger and Helen if you ever need anything just ask.

The "Boobies" well what can I say - the Boobies would have made Greg proud - as they say "you do not get many of them to the pound"

The shot was fine but the salt and the lemon you can keep.

Sunday was a driving day to remember - 800 miles of low flying on some nice empty roads. Jim said we averaged 74 MPH including gas stops and lunch.

I just got on the list for the first time in several weeks to find the bad news. I live 10 minutes from Falcon Field and hate that I missed it. It looked like a good time for a Great guy.

Too many Rennlisters lost in 2012, but Greg leaves a void that won't be replaced.

Agreed, I'm still in a bit of shock about this, so I Lorelei.

I'll never forget the look on his face when I asked how banjo music sounded in a 928.

Godspeed my friend.
