Greg and Vera relocated to Vineland where they started a family with the additions of Gregory Achinko III and Natalie. Greg worked for many years in the printing and graphis arts industry, and selflessly worked two jobs at times to ensure that his children completed their college educations. Greg enjoyed assembling perfect sounding audio systems, had a passion for collecting and selling antiques and loved dancing and taking trips with his beloved wife Vera until her untimely passing in 2004. Greg will be deeply missed by every person who knew him or that ever had a chance to meet him.
