TearDrop Memories has been a leading organizer of in town events. It's resume includes the eponymous Almost Art Show, Liberty Festival, High Heel Drag Race, Liberty Pole, Monroe Crossing, National Honey Bee Day, Coryells Ferry Militia, New Hope Meter Angels and Colonial Christmas. As advisor to the New Hope Chamber of Commerce, Greg fought hard for New Hope businesses and against the town's repressive regulations. Greg remained one of the town's last curmudgeons.

Many will miss Historian Greg's cheeky greeting, "can I be of any help or make up a story?" a line that while eliciting smiles, really exemplified the store's main talent, storytelling. "I never wanted to be a cashier, as most of today's wanna be antique stores are. I wanted my customers (friends) to feel the same passion for the past as I do", said he. A shop crowded with everything from antique coffins, Victorian bird cages, real Gothic Georgian mourning jewelry, ancient hair art memorials, early medical tools and antiquarian books, became a wealth of material for his epic tales. The shops motto "Nothing with a barcode or made in China label" was rarely equaled in Town. This unusual shop and his reenactments of both Revolutionary War Rebellion hero Capt. John Fries and a 19th century Victorian Undertaker, drew visitors to New Hope from around the world. Post Mortem Gallery TearDrop Memories NorthFork Pet Antiques is Gone But Not Forgotten… Memento Mori !

A quote from Bill Bunch;
"The core belief of the [Day of the Dead] is so poetic and simple: as long as we remember those
who have passed away, as long as we tell their stories, sing their songs, tell their jokes, cook their favorite meals, THEN they are with us, around us, and in our hearts. The moment we forget them, then they are truly gone.
(The Art of the Book of Life)
