Greg has been a very active PGR Member, for many years.

He touched the lives of everyone who knew him he was beyond active in the community and did everything and then some he could to help Veterans. A Vietnam war veteran known for working to honor the military and pushing to add “In God We Trust” to city council chamber walls thru out California he spearheaded a campaign to make Yorba Linda a “red shirt city” in 2013. The move honors veterans and deployed personnel by wearing red every Friday. The tradition dates to World War II and is one his passions a U.S. Navy veteran, took to the Yorba Linda City Council, which unanimously approved it.
