I knew Greg Moore in 7th and 8th grade at Staley, and hung out with him on Garden Street with Tom Tagliaferri and Wesley Richardson. Greg was a friendly guy, and had an unmistakable "machine gun" laugh. I didn’t know him well, but it still hurts to know he’s passed. 

 

In one sense, we are the sum of all the people in our lives. It feels like I just lost a little piece of myself. 

 

Rest in peace, Gregory

Oh my I can't believe this. I grew up with his family. Our mothers were best friends. So many of our classmates gone so soon. This is so sad. - Saneen Armstrong

Gregory, you made me split a gut with your impression of Wesley Richardson's dad back in 1965 in Mr. Spelicy's homeroom.  Wish we had reconnected throughout the years. - Dennis Parrish

Greg was part of my neighborhood "gang" before he changed his name from Greg Manley to Greg Moore. He and Wesley Richardson were always hanging out with those of us on Roosevelt Ave/Garden Street. Gone too soon. - Joe Mercurio

Greg was in Mr Bielec's 11th grade home room with me.  We ended up in the same dorm at MVCC, and went to pro-wrestling at the Utica War Memorial.  It cost $2 which was cheaper than the movies.  Sure, it was staged but you could boo and swear and throw empty beer cups.  Jenny was 15 cents a cup. - Steve Miroy
