Greg was always so uplifting and guiding. Much more than a Wealth Manager to me. I´m gutted to hear this news. I will truly miss our phone conversations. Prayers to his family and friends. Rest in peace my friend. Mark and Amy McCoy, Marietta, GA.

Our hearts go out to all of Greg's family and to his extended family at UBS. Have dealt with Greg for years and found him to be not only a true gentleman, but an extremely intelligent and caring man. He will be surely missed by my household, and I'm sure many, many others.

I live in the mountains of North Carolina and Greg has been my investment advisor for years. The first call after Hurricane Helene hit our area was not from any family members or close personal friends. It was from Greg Hollingsworth checking on me and my family. He was one of the good guys.
