Bo-Boy's Young Days

Greg was born to me and Katie in the early hours of October 23, 1979, on a cold sunny morning "home delivery." I was so excited to have my first son that we named him after our two dads. His first name, Gregory, came from Katie's dad, and his middle name, Jacob, after my dad. Greg was a chubby kid when he was small, and because we loved him too much we fed him extra. As he approached six years old he got slimmer. He had lots of toys but he used to take them apart, probably to find out what made them work. Because of that, today he is a good mechanic. Greg's childhood sickness was asthma which he has had since he was little.
