It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Greg O'Brien of Ottawa, Ontario, who passed away on April 29, 2024, at the age of 43, leaving to mourn family and friends. Family and friends are welcome to leave their condolences on this memorial page and share them with the family.

As we bid Greg farewell, let us not mourn the absence of his physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of his spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Greg is not truly gone, but merely transformed, his energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
