“The oldest of his brothers, Gregg, was a student of health and well -being of Pompano Beach, Florida. Known for his contagious personality, positive energy and kindness, enlightened every room in which he entered. Well known in the area of southern Florida because of its provocation of basketball, many we will miss it a lot.
“Let us remember Gregg not only for their achievements in sports, but for the kindness and warmth he shared with everyone. He will always remain part of our university family.”
