    fiddler - It looks like I am the second one to open our site today. I'm sorry to tell you that Greg has passed. He put up a brave fight but just couldn't shake this last recurrence. I'll direct you to the
    conversations from when he was still in the hospital. To follow it as everything unfolded please see in this order: Marcie B 10/9 Ticklingcancer 10/17
    IKickedit 10/18 and Bug on 10/30. I'm sure you feel the huge void that we do.

    So Sorry to hear the news about Greg.. I had been wondering myself about him. I always liked opening What's Next and seeing a posting from him. He will surely be missed on here. Prayers for his family.

    Oh, Fiddler and Junie. I'm so sorry you are just finding out now. It's truly been a shock to pretty much everyone on WhatNext. And you're right. He has been missed terribly. We continue on to honor his memory.

    About 6/7 weeks ago I had to step back from WhatNext because of personal mental health concerns. But, my concern and curiosity finally brought me back for "just a peek". I am deeply saddened by the loss of Greg. He has been a godsend for many of us as we faced our own demons along this path. I remember a long ago post by Greg addressing the deep well of strength we find to draw on as we struggle to move forward. He said it's not just finding the strength to carry on but also, at some point, perhaps needing to find the courage to know it's time to let go.

    I never met Greg Pierce in person but I grew to feel he was a friend. Your courage continues to inspire my friend. Rest easy. Your fight is done.
