Gregory Michael Armstrong

life story

A wonderful loving husband, fantastic Father & Big G & Proud Veteran

Dad. Just some of the words that come up when I think of him. Drive in movies, music, homemade popcorn, taco salad.

He would buy in bulk. It was like grocery shopping when we came to visit. Homemade ice coffee, beef jerky. All stands for comfort.

He had a system for everything he did. He was an all or nothing man! He had an endless supply of Miscellaneous information. He loved being a Big G. I will miss what I called "The dad dimple" when he knew he was being naughty, but I get to see it in my son. He nursed me countless times. Mostly he left me with an endless supply of wonderful memories and most importantly LOVE. ~Cory
