This will be one of the hardest post I've ever typed on here....................

Last night, Greg Yost, passed away.

At this time, I have no details, or any arrangement information. As soon as I have any of the details, I will share them with everyone here.

The fall he took Friday did major damage to him, so bad that he was not able to survive it.

Lyn, Greg's wife, is a strong woman, she'd have to be, but it's my belief she will need all the help she can get.

Again, as soon as any more information becomes available, I'll let everyone know.

Today, I just lost one of my best friends.

God Speed Greg!!!!!!

The racing family has lost a guiding light. Greg was always a person to set you straight. If you screwed up he told you so, if you did good he was the first to praise you. There were many times Greg was able to help me see things in a perspective that I was unable to see. For that I will be forever grateful. We will miss you.
Mg and the entire Torg! Family.
