“The one thing I missed was spending time with my son (Lynn Greer III) and my wife (Solana). I’m away for so much of my 13 years. I think my son and my wife have been able to travel for only five of them. So, it’s so many years that goes by and you can’t get that time back. It becomes a point where it’s about building my family, growing with my family. When my son was young, he was able to travel with me. Now, he’s getting older.
