I met Gregory Fill in 1985, when he was traveling as a musician. He and his friends were invited by my room mate at the time. I moved to Winnipeg in 1986 and Greg and I stayed in contact up until he moved to Vancouver. In 1995, I met his mother Nellie, after I had found out Greg had passed away. She invited me to have tea with her at her residence in the Maples, here in Winnipeg. She had me paint a portrait of Greg. Last time I saw her. - Posted by: Terrice Holmwood (Friend) on: Jan 28, 2020
