Daddy, you ‘life’s lessons” were always important to us… It was beautiful to see the love that you gave to each of your children and how much you had your your grandchildren. They will have the fondest of memories -each story has a teching of some sort and a happy memory along side it… The last words we said to you were, Happy Birthday Daddy, I love you and you kissed me like I was one of your own… I hope you truly listened to those words and use then as a pillow as you rest in eternal peace. We, your family, are your legacy and you, our legend. Riposo in pace. <3 <3<3

I had the honour of working with Frankie and had the utmost respect and admiration for him. He was a truly special man and will be deeply missed. Please accept my condolences.
I am the coordinator of the CORE Program trguohh the School of HPER at IU. Our spring semester courses have been held at Hilltop for a few years now. Greg always went out of his way to make Hilltop our home away from home during the long hours we spent in the classroom together. Our students always considered him part of our CORE family. His unexpected passing has left us all in shock. I can’t imagine walking into Hilltop and not seeing his smiling face. All of us in CORE would like to extend our sympathies to Susan and to all of Greg’s associates, friends, and family. Please let us know if we can do anything to help during this difficult time.
